We had to take words and phrases from this one article about September 11th and compose them into a poem. 

carefully coordinated
Flight 11
United 175
United 93
Shouting
“we’re being hijacked” 
Armed with knifes
The planes crashed 
266 dead

Crashed into North Tower
Plowed into South Tower
Hellish storm
Ash, glass, smoke
Parts of buildings, crushed cars
9:50
10:29
Tower suddenly vanished
Collapsing
Serenade of sirens 

“The screaming was horrendous”
Horror only know to war
Pure horror.
Weeping people wandered 
Screaming and Thronging 
White with soot
Red with blood
Screaming
“the sky was black…
We ran”
Covered with ash
Screaming 
The fear that it was not over. 

Thousands and thousands of bodies
Bodies in the smoldering
Thousands has perished 
Concealed by the
Twisting 
Smoking
Ash-Covered
Carcasses of the twin towers
The Morgues were going to be the busiest 

Evil, Despicable acts of terror
shock, grief, solidarity
“I invite New Yorkers to pray”
“This is a tragedy this great city can handle”
“Intended to frighten our nation”
“They have failed”

Seize four planes
broken towers
mass murder
No obvious meaning,
Why Sept. 11th?
