As when the Challenger exploded
all of us brought into tragedy
by the TV screens, the images
not wanting to believe
A gasp, in horror,
as the planes crashed into the towers
as they fell, in clouds of smoke
knowing the death inside
A gasp was the response
as each person faced terror
alive in our hearts that day
never to be forgotten
