9/11/10

Towers turned to dust, Pentagon ablaze in pain, Still the Eagle Stands. Turning our anger, Pretending to be happy, Quasi- war Lingers. Give Islam its due. Let them prove their peaceful cant. Or loose the Genie.

wow! wonderful poem indeed! 9/11 is still a nostalgic part of history today... I most certainly mourn for the people who died or lived through that. Great senryus! :DD I love the first three lines. Catches the eye. Thanks xD
