Hinged and Hollow Ingots
                                       by Steel Warren
A tag team interpretation by two guest commentators the illustrious
NW or Nero Watts, head commentator for a widely respected fish wrapper
and R.W. Spisak a literary ner-do-well, with simulated delusions that could be considered as leaning
toward the Tibetan (He's even requested sky burial) (ED.)

RWS: ["Title" - flexible and "empty" fluid - all like, as in near, the sacred holy TAO]
NW: {re Title: also the use of INGOT a "bar of steel" and subtler still the "i" beam
           of "god's eye" "jah" or "yod", or  the great I AM- as in ad, "Got God?"}

the crystalline substrata
RWS: [first line aleady attempts movement and the integrity of charged particles 
             in electrical alignmentunder vibrating plane - when molecule align creating 
            "crystals they vibrate]

NW: {life can be metaphored as a microchip of silicone crystal and the various
          doping compounds - "silly complications - gated or ungated communities 
          of transistors, resistors, capacitors and fleeting electrical charges}

the caravan o'er land
RWS: [linking the metaphor of a desert trip through hostile territory 
           with growth of crystal lattice structures
on an inhospitable 
         or non-bonding substrate]
NW: {crystal growth is progress through time, look it up}

convinced in the cantata
outrageous sleight of hand
RWS: [the truth of movement... by defining location in space, only thus can progress be measured]
NW: {this truth of position, can however be deceptive}

an isolated follicle
a focal point of fame
the wet and dripping pine tree
we're carving in the rain
RWS: [the hair of the lady nuit - each hair is a sacred point in motion-to find it=fame unity
        flame & fame differ in only the L - the dripping gripping fur tree (hare again-gone tomorrow)
        drip carving in the loss, the reduction, the introduction of the void - in full fluid flow - 
        is carved in rain - the flow add & seeks &  falls to rebuild]

NW: {hair - point in space defined in time - from the point within to the end where the flow drips off
          the sacred pine - times erosion to entropy- expression of nothingness revealed through
         corrosive processes}

Leafing
RWS:[leaves like the hair falls in time, a leaf a noun - leafing - the verb - its not static]
NW: {what's a leaf - solar catchers mit that buds, blooms, blossoms and does its work
           and falls to rise again}

hinged and hollow weed wand
hand held ingots, they'd been raised
RWS:[this wand is no dead stick-it grows-<hand held> - guided and oppose gravity & thumbs]
NW: {holding raising "grasping the inner god "<german GOTT>)

together sensing seeing brave
RWS:[attentiveness and dissolution of opposites no fear, no against}
NW: {watching then doing}

TOO SOUTH
BIG MOUTH
NW: {watching what you say - don't stray out of bounds}
RWS:[adjuration, don't say that "low" thing]

a teacher taught one two trick three
where the others couldn't wouldn't be
but put the alone together ... then
the knowledge both can weave
RWS: [from learning new links are made]
NW: {biographical only - mere sentimentality}

this when to weather
RWS: [from learning time changes as the weather, or weather
         is a time-bound phenomenon]
NW: {don't worry about the NOW - its out the door yesterday - cryptic, nicht var}

conceiving the mischief of a belief thief
RWS:[pantheism, pure and simple-steals from rich gods- gives to poor gods]
NW: {unlike peter, no rock, or maybe better said "unrock" or the sacrilege that destroys belief}

they could
although to say they should isn't good
RWS: [principle of minding your own business]
NW: {just a mad rhyme about motives, and their slippery qualities}

TOGROW
like knowing
takes a throw or toss of WIN
and  LOSS
RWS:[the risk at the bottom of learning]
NW: {the crap shoot of evolution and growth, nothing ventured nothing gained}

THEYDARE
SOME CARE
sharing air down here
RWS:[planetside mutuality of interests]
NW: {the mad rhymer again, but something about daycare or caring about a day, might be hinted at}

buddy budding wonderloss... wanderlust...
RWS:[awareness on new friendship and new nearer borders]
NW: {new beginnings after knowledge}

Chomping dust to be hollow hinged and feeding free
NW: {doing whatever it takes - to be empty, flexible - nourished by all things}
RWS: [eat my dust - i'm headed for sainthood or divinity - full throttle]

the crime mocking marking time
to say they say
RWS:[if you prognosticate your perorations - will please few]
NW: {historians can only grasp at shadows, look ahead}

"hollow hinged
as some of those rings, heavy things,
                       but

                                    CLEAR
NW: {bent or flexible nothing - might be philosophically powerful,
            but at least it leaves no ponderous burden behind}
RWS: [so on the road of life, you may occasionally need,
          your pooper scooper]
NW: {sure there is an earnest quality to some of this stuff,
            but does he really think this way - had to pay his asylum bills
            clear, transparent, empty, flowing-open empty like the holy sacred tao}
