REMEMBER?
On radio
Came news
Alleged attack
Set world aback.
Nine O'clock
What a shock
To very foundations of
Us and many nations
Buildings tall,
Peeps so small
Sent crashing and sliding
In and on themselves
Jumping, diving,
Flying, driving,
Talking, walking,
Sleeping, Dreaming,
Buying, lying
Trying, crying,
Living,
--Dying.
It was real,
It was personal.
Anger, Sadness,
Horror and more
Out in the street and
Behind locked doors,
Strangers meet--
Waiting on top floors
For death to happen
In awfullest, useless
Hellish hatefulness.
God have mercy on
All the souls
Afflicted,
Affected...
Please heal wounds
Of Nation and World
As more than millions
Of flags unfurled
God help us do
What obviously
We cannot by
Ourselves alone.
--Alone.....To
Forgive--
Let live.
But not let
Ever forget.
