9/11

Death and fire consumes the air
Millions of people in despair.
These buildings fall quicker than the Dow
Many just wonder how
I am pulled out of school early 
Even though it is just 10:30
I am in second grade
I know not what damage has just been made
I am just the age of seven 
The date is 9/11
