411:
In
a flash, a suicide plane crashes Tower 1!Smoke flares
Glass windows shatter
Building floors collapse
Another reckless plane crashes into Tower 2!
From broken, remaining windows …
I saw white, dilapidated shirt being waived for help
I spotted several men, women attempting a jump
Somewhere afar … I heard voices cry and scream,
“We’re here!”
“HELP!”
“We can’t breathe; smoke is thick and choking!”
“Please … come get us out of here!”
Down below the now imploded … exploded structures
In the rubbles and heaps of debris, figures collect
Tired bodies crouch anywhere, everywhere
They lay and stretch their extremities
They grab a wink to renew energy
Urgent attention and work appear endless …
EMS attend non-stop to bleeding bodies
Firefighters hand-in-hand raise ladders and pull hoses
They rush and scramble to stop fire from re-igniting and building
Volunteers search piles of crumbled concrete for trapped souls
Diligent nurses and doctors attend to wounded
All beat the clock to save lives …
All give away what they can muster to comfort …
In kindred spirit, all uphold one another
Until hate, terror and shock are subdued!
