Freedom's Sky
9/11/13
Freedom’s Sky
Phantom pain beneath the sting of time,
un-dulled, searing flash across the face
of humankind, horizon’s emptiness.
Shadows cast by ghosted steel
linger in the blue skied minds,
shrouded in the creeping dust.
Tears that will not fade,
hearts that cannot fill
a hole in freedom’s sky.
