a beautiful man…copy of me before the new-metal steel…Well,how had he fared with the War…why did he,the man of Faith…bring me only a message of tears…Was he telling me how sorry he was at my condition, each new-metal part of me but a faucet to turn on his tears?

Our world ministers negotiated and drew up some good rules for a dirty war. Even a dirty war must have good rules,they said…You know who won…He won with a rotten underhanded dirty trick,this vile vile man…his plaques are bigger than mine! HIS ARE FIRST-PLACE PLAQUES…l HATE HIM!

He had become stronger in faith…sure of the Promises…things that couldn't be proved,but…surely there-he said. I became one to question…With the littlest hint of a threat I would reach for the ball peen of steel…not talk of a Beautiful Hour…Our lives went their different ways.

But we were MEN!…When our beautiful plans for war went alive in the world…the White Witch rockets firing,the wow bombs grandly falling…and all the other hardware of our Joy-at-War beautifully functioning—we knew what we were doing. We lived, we felt….

Central could have decreed a compulsory Joy Day…Not one of the underprivileged people would have been excused…At a common instant…a steel finger in Central would touch a small jolly-color orange button marked GO GENTLY…celebrators then would simply in a twinkling be a POUFF!

…thanks to science, our once-dirty Earth-ball clean…coated with plastic, our hardly-used air…colored in beauty with a different hue each month…our once garbage-wrecked oceans frozen…our temperatures as quiet and as changeless as ever…through Season Control in Central.

Arsenals were tested anew. Things done were undone. The air got sicker; the streams ran not pure but pure danger— There seemed no chance for flesh-man, and his God seemed entirely silent wherever He was, wherever His white throne was. The HOPELESS signs were out everywhere.
