Une pensée effrayante aléatoire

very intimate and so true
realising the pain of loss
we would cause those close
to us
is a big anchor to our own life
itself..

What I, as a young author, know about 9/11

My father survived WWII in the Battle of the Bulge. I never knew what he saw until the morning of 9-11. Not that I saw what my father saw, but through my eyes, I was not only a part of personally being there and surviving, but I witnessed tragedy of the worst kind, continued dreaming of the days events, but then witnessed hope through unity. I only hope, through all the tragedies in this world, that people can learn to unify indefinitely, instead of just for a moment, because that\'s the crime, it seems unity is but for a moment. Your write obviously inspired my comment, and as a writer, that\'s the result you should be proud of, eliciting a response. Well done.

factually concise, but
wise poet
it\'s beyond the facts, that date
is remembered for
it is the day, the entire world realised
Humanity
is its own greatest threat
a threat, that can never be conquered
it is the sheer horror of watching people dangle from collapsing buildings
it is the feeling of complete impotency
at witnessing such a catastrophic tragedy
and knowing, someday
something far worse
will be witnessed by a generation
who
only know the facts about this date
not the generational trauma it planted
in billions of shattered hearts
(and I, am not even an American
citizen
nor have I lost anyone to that date
I just watched it unfold
on a screen)
may you never \'know\' about 9/11
or anything similar to it
