hm, looks like a bronwser problem 

what happens if you only include the graphic, 

\startMPpage 
z40 = (2cm,0cm)    ;     z41 = (3cm,0cm) ;
z42 = (3cm,1cm)    ;     z43 = (2cm,1cm) ;
z46 = (2.5cm,.5cm) ;

path F ; F := (z40--z41--z42--z43--cycle) ;

linejoin := mitered ;

drawpath F ;
label("very", z46) ;
\stopMPpage 

so, no other text
