Can You Hear Me Now, Ludwig? Poem by Joe Rosochacki

It’s all rock ‘n’ roll to me is what Billy Joel sang.
But this different because it is new classical music,
Often discordant and too loud for EU,
Not a Ninth Symphony from Beethoven,
The equivalent to OSHA stepped forward to subdue to the performance of Halat Hisar,
The symphony was nixed before opening,
One of the musicians said it was a blessing,
To not play that symphony by Feiler.
Maybe Dror should have it played in a rock based setting,
But then again his State of Siege might become Stage of Siege,
When Marshall Amps begin to blare his music,
Complete with feedback,
- reminiscent of Jimmy,
With Woodstock three.
