 The Phoenix:

His hair is like a phoenix's feathers

Eyes that reflect the sea

Twin scars adorn his cheeks

Now nothing more than a memory

Of what happened oh so long ago

A terrible reminder of the thing he loathes

That man, no beast, who ruined his life,

If a life is what you could call it

More like an existence forced upon a weary soul

Perhaps what that man did

Was a blessing in disguise

For now he wishes to live

If only for revenge, then so be it

Eyes full of mako

They glow in the dark

A gift or curse from the mad

A demon in human guise

Who calls himself Hojo

Blessed with inhuman speed

Cursed with the crimes it allows him to commit

You drink away your sorrow

And disguise yourself as a clown

A joker with no bounds

But are you truly that uncaring?

Could anyone truly be quite so forlorn

To be able to slit someone's throat

While laughing all the while?

To have created this clever guile

Could anyone melt that frozen heart?
