Metal Men
The world has changed
and we all have become metal men.
The National World Metal Men Conference
is being held in New York this week
to examine the consequences.
We are heavy,
and can no longer sleep in our beds.
We sink in the ocean.
Our air planes will not work.
We no longer need to eat or drink.
“There is no explanation for this”
says Carl East Man, leading biologist.
“No one will ever know what happened or why.”
We spend our days sitting outside.
It is difficult to speak in our old languages.
We cannot harm ourselves.
Maybe it is no longer possible to die.
