New York September Eleventh
In the year of our Lord 2001


9-11-01:
Confusion, Disbelief, and Dismay:

Rumbling of engines explosions and fears,
alarms and sirens blast in their ears.
Some moving away with non-quenching stares,
others run in and up, toward the tops of the stairs.

9-11-01:
Perplexity and Disarray:

Some said they saw pink dust,
bodies smashed demolished and crushed …
While others saw gray ghost mulling around,
becoming part of the rigid and tormented grounds.
Bodies floating out of windows like debris,
alone to their death they jumped, to be freed.
While their loved ones unmoving in unspeakable pain,
echoed - the world today, totally insane.

9-11-01:
Butchery and Irresolute:

What monsters this human man has become,
like beast feverishly focusing on what next can be done –
To destroy in the name of Allah, and seek pleasure in their cause,
absolute distortion, in their wicked heartless flaw…

Why Hell?
Terrible events that evil spirit has ordained and lead:

Evil, veiled in peace and love, waits to destroy again and again.
Why Hell?
A place to collect and hold,
those butchers, possessed, in wicked souls.

Remember:
Flight 77 – The Pentagon
Flight 93 – Open Field in Southwest Pennsylvania.
