EVA25 Conversation with Steve Wake

The Responsibility Of Tomorrow Starts Today

2021 the international year of RPM, 

A call to cut and shine the unpolished gem

We are spinning at around 1000 MPH

But we don’t notice, as we, everyone & everything is in the same place.

But in the real world we are all spinning in different directions & velocity

And some are passing go, some are missing a throw in life’s game of monopoly.

Less slogan, more practice

More reaction, less delaying tactic.

It’s true, it’s adorable when you blame everyone but you

Success and failure, both are hard to gauge

It depends on the headlines you want on your front page

Smart citizens, smart cities, ‘Amplifying the scope’,

The words of the prophet or some such other old bloke.

Delivering projects and lives to be better.

Meeting  the needs of society

Without the need for an Oprah that interrogates sense that is common less royalty.

Every link is linked do you want to do the conga, or the Hokey Cokey?

Do you want to sustainability that’s longer,

How long is a piece of string depends if it’s ropey!

Social Value is a key to unlocking the re-arrange.

Plastic bricks, fantastic tricks,

Set a mark that’s bench, if you want long seated change.

We could speak about this for ages,

We could fill up volumes of pages,

We could put all our demons in cages,

We could measure for measure in all the world’s stages.

All we can do is maximise all we know

And of course use RPM, if we are really going to Lego.
