The Liège Steel Industry: Rest in Peace!

A view of the disused blast furnace with a cemetery in the foreground

“Well, when I’m dead
No more good times will I crave
When I’m dead
No more good times will I crave
You can stand and shout hero
All over my lonesome grave”

(Bob Dylan in Hero Blues)

“As soon as you’re born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
‘Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be”

(John Lennon in Working class hero)

2 black eyes with view on Tata Steel

“A glance from a dark eye
opened its way into my heart
like a ray of sun that shines
through the fog of the day.”

Hit me, hit me
