Ugly Phoenix



Ugly Phoenix

Try and push the horror of evil from my mind
Two little ones burn their toddler sister to a cinder
No force of good or evil just humanity’s anvil
The mother that tortured her daughter to death

Savages that make wild animals cringe in terror
Reason and instinct is no contest and no error
Inhumanity and then the terrible unearned guilt
Teaching that just being born is a sinful act

Prey on the vulnerable and twist their innocence to guilt
So hurt me and I deserve it becomes a quilt
Slowly, slowly as the brutes strike women the mind wilts
Then the ugly phoenix of not minding and returning to the pits

Great evil when the victim is consumed by the demon
Be strong, rather be alone and fighting than surrender your reason
No protection for the defenseless from the greed of sacrifice
Despicable is weakness, the emotion from humanity’s hopeless chalice
