Metal Mania

Cast away the Golden third,

3-D perspective - how absurd!

To what proportions must we mete,

Do you see meters, miles or feet?

Is this a scene ‘beyond the pale’

Or metal shavings set to scale?

What can you glean from what is spare?

Who gets there first and should they share?

What is the use of thriftless waste,

When what you throw’s another’s taste?
