The Monarch
Once there was a good monarch who wanted to become a statue. He first prayed to the deities to provide him a magical mirror so that he can capture the right pose. He then called for the Goddess of Paris to provide him the right plaster. But being an Asian that she is, the Goddess referred him to the consultant Leonardo. The monarch traveled mountains, dark smelly alleys, oceans, rooftops, valleys, suburbs, oceans and even parking lots to reach the consultant situated at the middle of central park, Old York. He is always to be found behind the red car (In the middle of a park? He asked indignantly. Yes, said the Goddess). Leonardo is where he was supposed to be, and he recommended that the Monarch avail bronze from a mall in Shanghai since there was a 70% discount there due to recession. He also recommended that the Monarch take a flight on one of his private planes.

The flight took more than 50 years. By the time the Monarch reached Shanghai, the country was transformed into a Norwegian territory. All products increased prices up to 1000%! The Monarch used all the money that he got from his parents.Returning home, he was confronted by difficulties in customs, tax regulations, language barrier, insomnia and dyslexia. He began paying his way out through cutting portions of the Bronze. By the time he reached home, he no longer contains the vitality and the bronze with him. He fell sleep from exhaustion.

He woke up in the middle of the night covered with sweat. He prayed to the Mother Nature his disappointments, wishes and his travels. Magically his sweat turned to Bronze; Slowly engulfing his flesh and bones. Although filled with pain, the monarch posed in the manner he liked best; the reclining position. His heart slowly pumping bronze. His veins clogged by Bronze. His nostrils breathing Bronze. He smiled and died slowly.

The next day, the townsmen found the statue of a reclining man. They never knew who he was and decided to call him Monarch.
