﻿WHAT’S IN A NAME 
 
(Interpretation’s the thing). 
 
Little tools have lesser tools 
Within their sockets riding 
And these again have lesser still 
And lesser still—providing. 
 
And the great tools themselves, 
Have greater tools around ‘em 
While these again have greater still 
And greater still—confound ‘em! 
And every tool, pin, wheel, or gear, 
Each bushing, spring and lever 
Are tools as well as any spear— 
Machines, like any cleavier.
