Iron will?

I've met this pretty awesome bloke
who knows a really funny joke.
It starts with "now you listen here!"
"You must do as you're told my dear."
Well let's just say I coughed and spluttered,
when at first those words he uttered!
As the tears rolled down my face
he said "I'll keep you in your place!"
I laughed 'till I could scarcely breathe
at how he truly DID believe
that he could rule with will of steel,
so before him I would kneel,
cowed and docile at his whim,
obedient to only him!
His forcefulness is very brave,
when truthfully, he's just my slave.........
