[Twin Towers Black Out]

911: The shadow of things to come

Oh say can you see
by the dawn's early light,
the shadow of the Towers
that once shined so bright?

Oh say can you feel 
the horror and pain
that cut deep into America
on September 11th, Twenty One?

Oh say can you hear
the screams of streaking jets
and the explosive thunder
as they smashed through those
peaceful floors?

Can you hear the horrific
cries of innocent human beings about to die?
Can you hear the rumble
of the collapsing mountains;
or smell the 
dusk and the blaze
of that infamous day?

Only invisible blackness now stands
where Twin Towers once stood
on America's welcoming shore. 

Time will never account 
for what can never be explained.

Into the hearts and souls 
of every American
from every land and race
and religion as well,
the shadow of sacrificial death
carved a permanent scar.

The eagle soars high above the earth
and the Phoenix rises from its ashes,
reborn and renewed.

There can only be one 
course for the hope of the world.
There can only be one path
for a nation that affirms that 
all the peoples of the world 
can live in peace.

The towers must be rebuilt !!!

And for those who thought 
they would bring America to its knees
they will find instead 
an unwavering resolve to
hold fast to liberty, justice and equality for all.

Criminals will come and go
but the light of America must continue to shine
if the hope of peace and WorldPeace
is ever to become a reality.

The time has come to rebuild the Twin Towers
of World and Peace.

How can we manifest peace on earth if we do not include everyone (all races, all nations, all religions, both sexes) in our vision of Peace?
