Okay, so what's the key? What makes the substitution easy?

table of elements is
the key...but easy?

I saw iron right away
before your spoilers

Clayfoot - I seem to be using this symbol an awful lot lately!
Very clever... I was able to check Ariock's solution by using
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
my trusty SI Chemical Data Book that was sitting by my desk. Is it weird to have a copy in my bedroom?
A question, thebruce.
Could we have a small hint please?
Your haiku confounds

breath...the pupils dilated...
and nothing happens.

Passing down the crown
As nightly chill is burning
Siblings say goodbye
What do I owe them
Where does my allegiance lie
Can I be frozen
Time's up, madness now
Vision after the smoke clears
Time waits for no man
Blood spilled constantly
Save my own for better use
Can the cost be born
The price for freedom
Why is it never easy
How can they be saved

Mere echoes remain
The halls that were once so full
I walk in sadness.

afk Winter quiets hive.
Only sound remaining is
buzzing monitor.
ay are gees are fine,
but I want to walk outside...
pick up a payphone.
Computer is off
but the buzzing continues.
Get up and follow.
"Melissa? That you?"
The buzzing is getting loud
drowning out traffic.
Ring. Melissa? Ring.
Operator? Ring. Durga?
Ring. Lift. Hello? bzzzzzzzzz.
Abandoned hand set
sways buzzing over clean snow.
Winter quiets hive.

My Haiku Generation Subroutine is on the fritz, although I could regurgitate my old Horrific Haiku..
But I felt this deserved wider circulation.

I was in an infinite
