Steel Birds – v2


Steel birds guided
giant passenger jets
driven for a purpose,
accelerating with intent
malevolent, evil
striking at our hearts
killing innocent people

Steel birds swooping
diving into the towers
bodies falling, falling,
jumping to their death
no way out, no rescue
against the azure sky
clouds of war rising
with nowhere to hide
