Remembrance 9/11
The towers fell,
Shattered.
Lives stopped,
By those with hearts of bone.
Hard ideologs.
Those in its wake,
Stripped from life.
Now ten years on,
Photos of the lost,
Clutched to grieving breasts.
An anniversary of pain.
Raw feelings renewed.
Salted wounds.
Bone deep.
No cliched phrases,
Or politicians platitudes
Can blam the pain.
Each recalled.
Tintinntabulations,
Reverberating on the wind.
Each held in remembrance.
