    IRON MAN’S INTERVENTION, STARRING THE AVENGERS

    As if I can’t have a drink
    or two in the morning,
    before risking my life
    for people who don’t
    know my name.

    As if I can’t enjoy
    a bottle of Chianti
    and a smooth woman
    when I’m not disarming
    warheads in mid-flight
    over the Atlantic.

    As if the bottle of Johnnie
    Walker you found, half-
    empty, in my briefcase
    implies I’m not capable
    of defending New York
    from shape-shifting, green
    men from another world.

    A man at Starbucks shoved
    me during morning rush.
    I stumbled over chairs,
    fell. With my suit—
    my marvelous iron prison—
    I could pop his head with a flick
    of one finger. But without it,
    I’m just a man lost in the city.

    Meanwhile you walk
    down streets with a cowl
    or cape the only difference
    and you’re transformed—
    the man underneath as real
    as the one slamming villains
    into concrete. You think
    I need a drink to get in
    the suit. But you’re wrong.

    I need it to get out.
