Mangled Bodies in a Ground Zero ditch
A Scratch for Death, the heroes tried, but the Islamic terrorists had the Itch
Ripped apart, people jumped, flying limbs
The neck dislodged, from the head, around the base of the rim
Fingers and nails torn to shreds
While their families slept softly in their cozy warm beds
A killer in most minds, but not their murderous own
Doing their dammed Gods work, their petty life on loan
Deranged and psychotic, we now try to explain the day away
Holy and Heaven-bound, he and his people were not willing to delay
How have these men, semi-human nearly, once probable innocent boys
Flown this plane, clearly, inconceivable, like a plastic toy?
Right Smack! - Into the heart of this World-
Trade, it all for heavens gold, loose virgins and rusted pearls
A sickening sight, somethings not right, in the bitten Big Apple’s core
These pathetic killers cared not of the lives they have ridden, stolen and Tore-
-Apart, from good and a child’s fairy tale told bad
Fathers from daughters and it’s just all too damn sad
So they drag us to fight
And as our neighbors, a world away, protect us from the falling bombs at night
So sit a moment, and Cry, and Never, Ever, forget
The bodies, handshakes and Faces, you could have, but never met.

This was certainly most fitting for the dark category..
or even perhaps sad..
no topic is no justice-
That being said-
The work itself was brilliant-
..very very well written-
..and I LOVE the way you've marshalled the ideas.
..great diction too.
on Sept. 11,
a day that a storm, unlike anyone, rained terror
down out of the skies..
Bless 'em..one and all
A wonderful, nobel and most heartfelt tribute to
our fallen and INNOCENT citizens..
Yours-

MOST tragic day for all.........and yes many were taken that were innocently not to be
Great , strong and powerful feelings
It wasnt meant, yet..it was
Worse than what has recently happened, yet it wont stop
Thanks for the beautiful and sad write

Holy ____!!!!!! The imagery!!!!! What a powerful and heart wrenching poem. Very powerful. Very incredible writing and thank you for bringing back that horrible memory that I feel so many of us have ,sadly, already forgotten. You did great! None of us should ever forget that day and your powerful reminder is truly just that; a powerful reminder that some need that swift kick to remember again!!!
Thank you,
Tim |
