Poem: A Rhapsody of Steele.



A Rhapsody of Steele.

Heavy Haul Does it with Chains.

The Chaining denotes an unheralded art form.  
.
Behold.
‘
The Binders...Ten thousand pound working load level...that denotes  seriousness.
‘
And they be Ratchet Binders...not the deadly widowmakers...That denotes an eye to caution.
‘
Note the Front and rear cross chains...this denotes adherence to the principle of straightforwardness...neither allowing leaning to right or left...and adds a touch of bravado...much like crossed bandoleers.
‘
On each corner  there are Vee chains.. through D-rings...this denotes  awareness of acceleration..both front and rear…and negates it.
.
In the middle is a straight pull the antipathy of bumps.
.
All of these chains are half inch...of ten thousand pound WLL.
.
And yet..what of diversity?
.
Notice...on four quadrants between end and center are ⅜  inc chains...of the twenty foot length persuasion. Longer but less brawny.
.
What at first glance is just a load...is in reality a Rhapsody of Steele.
.

Heavy Haul FlatBedders are sensitive guys and creative and up to the challenge...unlike Boxriders whose  main challenge is closing the door.
