A Modern Man Performs Feats of Construction With Complete Confidence

A man trusts metal
In that it has never let Man down
Or rather when it does
It usually lets him know in advance
With a squeal or squeak
A break in continuity
Common Man mistakes
Not to be held against metal
For metal, when faulted
Usually makes a big deal about it
Which is why we accept these terms
And protect our knowledge of fire
At all costs
