Heya! This is S3, the Demon Godling. Some of you may remember me from about 3 years back, having written 'Senior Citizen Gundam Wing,' as well as 'Gundam Survivor Island.' Well, after graduating high school, I took a creative writing class in college. The teacher was rather lenient, letting me write about whatever I wanted, as long as it was going with the classes' current theme: poetry. Guess what that means: Gundam Wing Poetry. And I got credit on it! This poem-thingy is based off the back story of Zechs/Milliardo that we see in episode 9: 'Portrait of a Ruined Country.' You'll understand. Read and review!

S3, the Demon Godling

Milliardo Peacecraft and Zech Merquise:
The Man and the Mask
By S3, the Demon Godling

My earliest memory is different than yours.
I remember my family,
Lying on the ground,
Blood pouring out of their gashes
And sores.

The military killed them,
Simply because they hated war.
I remember the rage
That boiled about –
Inside me,
Consuming me.

I joined the military,
Taking a name that was not my own,
My revenge a priority.
Lungs filled with gunpowder
And grease,
Ears with screams
And gunshots,
The taste of battle
Staying with me,
Like a specter of soldiers long since gone.

I did get my revenge.
The military overthrown from within,
Myself a member of them.
The officer who killed my parents
Begged for his life.
I gave him none.

Now Life is empty,
It has no meaning.
I ask God for answers,
He gives me none.
