- Diggers, corkscrewing cleanly in, exhilerausted, into the mind mine, impaled on edgeless shafts of subtle reminiscence, green- walking across the belts and ties.
In this sentence, the author uses words such as the "mind mine" and "reminiscence," which imply that the subject of his poem spends a lot of time alone with his thoughts. This lack of company or interaction with others highlight issues of isolation and alienation.
- Slanted dark-walked time, wet with ages of dryness, Raga of insignificance & blessed hopelessness.
"Dark-walked time," "ages of dryness," "insignificance" and "hopelessness" allude to the lack of <em>presence</em> of the subject. It also points to feeling small and unimportant. Loneliness often has these effects (feeling insignificant, feeling like there is no purpose to existence, not being present in the moment). Therefore, the sentence reiterates the suffering of alienation and isolation.

<span>I predict that Paul will ride for Mr. Sutcliffe, but he will get hurt because the horse is a strange horse.

He has a lot of faith in Paul's abilities, so if he thinks riding this strange horse is too risky for Paul, it probably is.</span>
