This immortal  
Enjoys shaping metal  
Into invincible armor  
The fires of hell itself  
Act as his bellows  
His pig iron is  
Primordial ore  
Born in supernovae  
Like anyone who truly loves their labor  
He is supremely happy, ecstatic even  
Despite the heat  
And the humidity  
Most of the time  
Still there is one thing  
That this god wishes he could do  
But has failed at, and not for lack of trying  
He is unable to lift one eyebrow at a time
