Embracing Steel

Adopting deceptions, I outgrew teenage years fast I twisted between strain-stress curves, from mild to high yield steel At 17, I was a rebar—unformed Aged in millimeters, off-limits to customers, deemed compressive, deemed antisocial Does elegant strain creak me? Do Mosley, Bungey, and Hulse reinforce concrete design to my existence? My thoughts now: high yield steel, bar marked 28 As a teen, I set with concrete—stronger at 7, 14, 28 days No longer a teen; my thoughts aren't mild steel now I'm reinforced top and bottom, built to withstand compression and tension ⚖️ PK X
