The Bus Mechanic and the Pussy Engineer

The Bus Mechanic and the Pussy Engineer

The wrong
approach
just never works
and that's how
getting thrown
under the bus
comes round.

We might think
that just trying again
will finally work,
getting us
to that place
downtown.

The only thing
learned
under a bus
is gears
and stuff
like tread wear
on foreheads
and such.

There's nothing
quite like
spending
just way
too many hours
under a bus
so much.

Finesse
and patience
and understanding
are the traits
of respect,
not fear.

There's nothing
to force
as it simply unfolds
in the hands
of an engineer.
