The mythical creature, The Phoenix, is able to rejuvenate,
to rise again from ash and decay, and to continue on past what logically it should.
These features make the creature relatable to the character of Phoenix Jackson. She is
older, starting to lose her mind and her physical abilities. Yet, despite the fact that
she should not able to make this trip to town on her own still, she is able to push on
and persevere. When she gets to town, her mental limitations begin once again taking
over, and she momentarily forgets why she has come. Just like the phoenix, she rises
from this lapse once again with renewed strength, showing that her love and concern for
her grandson is stronger than the grasp of age and time.
