Who understands the staccato melody
except the miller and his crew,
when tempered maize grain in the bin
sets the stage ready?
The lion, Degerminator roars,
tears grain apart with its claws
and dismembers germ
for Sieving machine to swallow
and discharge in two ways -
the dusty flour on one route
and endosperm on the other.
The duster, making appearance
knocks off much bran
for dancing Densimetric Table to control.
As the stock joins in the Table's waist dance,
a needless marriage is divorced,
leading to separate dance shows,
with gritty endosperm on one side
and germ with other impurities on another.
The elephant, Roller mill groaning,
tramples on the stock mass,
crushing it to pieces yet,
according to specifications,
depending on settings.
Air sifters come to play,
using acrobatic sprockets and pneumatics,
force dust off the track
with a stomach dance style,
separating grit from bran.
And who forgets Big Fan,
thundering overhead and,
imparting kinetics to the stock for transport.
