"Noise-to-signal" [ghazal]

When the noise-to-signal ratio grows extreme
will renascent thorns pronounce the rose extreme?

lend fresh clarity O midnight! when darbari's
open window day's brute echo shows extreme

is the writer some rough football in their play?
head's expendable! declaim blunt toes extreme

is the middle path obliterate O Buddha
when the raft declares the one who rows extreme?

Raphael why sift through shadow seeking substance?
gold's spent glimmer dreaming eyes suppose extreme
