NOISE ANNOYS

NOISE ANNOYS

Externally it might emerge as a belch
Especially as the seltzer may just fizz
But inside, one may just hear the stomach squelch

Maybe a hiccup, well you know how it is
A grunt is quite the opposite, so they say
But no-one should cackle in a TV quiz

A silly giggle might just escape one day
Yet a howl might just be judged a bit too loud
But a laugh, not a bellow, that is Okay

Such sounds may amuse an audience or crowd
In a studio setting, rules can apply
But deafening silence is rarely allowed

Bodily functions can often go awry
And can surprise anyone, yet few know why
