Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E ai ki a Ant Smith ko te korero i te pono mo te rahi o tana tane he 'whakatika' Nga tatauranga hou e whakaatu ana ko te rahi toharite o te pene he 5.16 inihi noa iho, he iti ake i te mea i whakaarohia i te timatanga, engari he aha te ahua mena kaore koe e rite ki te paerewa? I pānuitia e tētahi tāne he iti nei tōna ira (e whā inihi noa iho te roa) i runga i tana rangitaki mō ngā mōrearea o te whai i tētahi tamaiti iti - ā, ka pānuitia tōna pou. I konei, e whakamārama ana te kaituhi a Ant Smith, he kaiwhakahaere pūkaha 47-tau te pakeke mai i Rānana, he aha ia i whakatau ai ki te whakapuaki i ana tatauranga nui, ā, e whakamārama ana i te āhua o te iti iho i ētahi inihi. 'I te tau kua hipa i tuhia e au he poem me te pou rangitaki e pā ana ki te āwangawanga rahi o te pene. He mea whakamīharo, engari ko te uaua ake o te tuhituhi, ko te mea nui ake te āhua. 'Kua 48 oku tau inaianei, ā, kua tekau tau au e whawhai ana ki tēnei manukanuka, ahakoa he tino harikoa taku marena. 'He kaha nui o ngā tāne ki te whakakahore i ngā āhuatanga ā-hinengaro. I te mea kāore i te tūtaki tātou ki ō tātou ngoikoretanga ka taea e tātou te whakaaro kāore rātou i te tīariari. 'Ko te ahiahi haurangi korero ki te hou, engari he hoa pai, ina te tahi ara ranei te pātai o te rahi haere ake a whakaae ahau i ahau taua āwangawanga. 'I tino haurangi ahau, a, kaore i taea e au te aro atu ki te teka. Ki toku ohorere, ka mea ia e ia ano. He hoa whawhai i whakaaro ahau, i te mea i whakama ai matou ki te whakawhiti i nga tatauranga - i haere ia i te tuatahi, a whakaae ana ki te whai i te 6 anake". I kī atu ahau ki a ia e whā aku, ā, ka kitea tōna mānukanuka. 'Ko te whakapuaki i tenei pono he mea tino whakaoranga, a ko te kaha ki te whakamatau i taku hoa he utu. I tēnei wā i mōhio ai au he tino nui, he kore take hoki, te āwangawanga ki te rahi. I mōhio au ka taea e tōku ake tirohanga te āwhina i ētahi atu. 'Na reira i whakaputaina e au te rangitaki i roto i te tumanako mena he maha ake nga taangata iti ake e tuwhera ana, e pono ana ka taea e taatau te whakarite i tetahi tirohanga pono mo te toharite - kaua ki te kite noa i nga mea nui e whakaatuhia mai ana e te porn me te whakatairanga ki a tatou. E mea ana a Ant kia nui ake te tuwhera me te pono o nga tangata kia whakapumautia ai he tirohanga pono ake mo te toharite. I ngā marama e whai ake nei, ka whakatangihia e au te whitiāhua ki ngā wāhi maha huri noa i Rānana. I reira tonu...
