The Day the Red Skull Cried

Entirely evil, every bone in his body,
the Red Skull lived to destroy all peace.
His main target and nemesis is Captain America
and to bring him harm he tried with ease.

But to his chagrin
Captain America won every battle
all his attacks and master plans
would end in shambles

One day 
the Red Skull cried
He looked into his own heart
and tears came from his eyes

He realized that the harm that he caused
was not better than peace
and that freedom and happiness
should make all hatred cease

So he offered up the white flag
of surrender
And Captain America and the World
rejoiced with splendor
