1. metal (noun): a substance
(such as gold, tin, or copper) that usually has a shiny appearance, is a good
conductor of electricity and heat, can be melted, and is usually capable of

Well, Iron Man had the metal—and
He had the mettle, too. The

An acting superstar because
He made them love that metal
man
Whose skin was iron (that was the plan),
Whose soul was soft as any saint’s—
We love that dude! We’ve no complaints!
