Twin Towers Fell
By Franklin Price
9/11/2018

Twin towers fell, a living hell
The day was apropos
Was a nine-one-one emergency
Setting the future we now know

The years, now seventeen, have passed
From that day, two-thousand-one
We've yet to see the ending
Of what that terror had begun

Although the action felt like war
No country...

T wo buildings once stood tall
W hen one day they would fall.
I n the sky the planes flew
N ot knowing what they'd do.

T oo many people died
O n that day we all cried.
W hat happened no one knew
E xtreme anger just grew.

Touching my hand was a wet doggy.
Whatever my fate was going to be,
My dog, my hero would be with me,
If he was in terror it did not show,
I was the weak one that I know.
With agile body and eyes that could see
He swiftly, surely guided...

Monotonous keyboards clicking
Redundant clocks ticking
Phones ringing, elevator doors swinging
Coffee pots brewing, vending machines spewing
Insouciant workers, carefree shirkers loitering
Clerks, secretaries previewing, managers reviewing
Visitors on stairs, in lobby chairs, lines queuing
Fate's dissonant chords o'er content hordes teeming
From Crescent's waning moon, spell of doom flinging
Across availing sky, a...

Twin towers
I feel their pain
They know my name
I've taken a swan dive
Off the conservatory
A hundered times
But, I never die
The Towers are my only friends
And I love them

And when the towers crumbled
To the ground
Tears fell
But, I remained
Because they are my identity
To which I must be true
There's...

The day before the 
Twin towers died,
The skyscrapers cry 
For love and mercy
People jumping
Through broken
Glass windows,
Falling down
Unto a sea of death
Who will listen
To their call
As hostage 
Passenger jets
Crashed into
These steel walls
Making the 
Twin towers 
Tumble and fall
We could not
Put them back
Together, again
Evil exist
In this world
Still,...

God, not much is left for us to see
Terrorists came to destroy humanity;
Was so much suffering and also harm
As we cried out to You with great alarm.

Twelve years doesn't seem so long ago;
What happened had been a horrible blow;
Twin Towers with planes just did collide;
In...

TWIN TOWERS
IT HAPPENED ONE DAY
IN THE LIGHT OF SEPTEMBER
THIS IS HOW IT WAS MADE
A FEW MEN GOT IN A PLANE
AND SAID A PRAYER
AS THEY FLEW UP IN THE AIR

THEY GOT UP TO TAKE CONTROL
THEY WERE ON A ROLL
 WE WERE FIGHTING FOR OUR LIFE
THE PLANE...

Not as easy as 
being a passenger
post 9/11. 

And my own towers
fallen now
because of 
unanticipated
consequences. 

Without flavor
and excitement
I fear boredom

Which was my 
doom and I 
try to un-glue
these poisoned
piece.

911 Carousel
by Michael R. Burch

“And what rough beast ... slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?”—W. B. Yeats

They laugh and do not comprehend, nor ask
which way the wind is blowing, no, nor why
the reeling azure fixture of the sky
grows pale with ash, and whispers “Holocaust.”

They think...

On ground where once bright giants rose
A spirit wanders still
Through frailty of trust exposed
To dark wind’s bitter chill

The life that moved within this place
Is hurt, beyond repair
Yet we recall each voice, each face
In intimate despair

This price we pay! These dues we owe!
For freedom has a...

Usa Usa 
The free country 
Remember the day 
Where there were no delays 
Oh shall i say the delays 
Are because of the disgrace 
What we call teenagers of the day 
They are being bashed by standards high enough like the twin towers 
Twin tower...
