You say that you got no fear
For failure or consequence
If you leave the world behind
Can you imagine your loved ones’ pain instead

Across the city a mother weeps:
‘’She didn’t come home last night.
I thought that I raised her right, and gave her dough for a taxi ride.’’

It wasn’t a young boy’s dream
As much as a wake up call
My daddy said: ‘’Make your own way, my daddy told me the same.’’
You see I wasn’t a grade A whizz

One favourite bit when working in #HighwayMaintenance for 20+ yrs (with no #CivEng qualifications) was ‘inventing’ recipes for concrete/bituminous materials for specific jobs.
e.g. aggregate min/max sizes, % of grano dust, binder specs, etc. 😎
(Checked by engineers)
Forgotten all of it now, obv.
