Hours After The Attack On The World Trade Center


Weeks ago, I fell in love with that bright city.
I took no photographs, surprised by how
diminutive stood Liberty, the pity
I had so long envisioned on her brow.

The streets of low Manhattan cleanly raced
along the base of building fronts which bore
toward the clouds -- a pale, calm canyon's face
around the Towers, built when I was four.

I've cried this morning to a liquid shred
to see one hour's potency, to see
the desperate faces of the knowing dead
choosing to die in flight instead of heat.

Three black birds hurried skyward once the last
abomination pierced the southern tower,
as if, like mine, their courses had been cast
to seek the Kingdom, glory, and the power

and brood upon the first great desecration.
"Then there was war in Heaven," Saint John wrote.
The fire which scarred that moment of our nation
was nothing less than falling rebel host.



In Ramah


In Moscow, red and yellow blooms were laid
before our nation's embassy. The bells
of Notre Dame rang out. An esplanade
of candles flared for us in Kosovo.

The Muslims in Jerusalem rejoiced
to witness Allah slay the infidels,
while silence from the free and many-voiced
in South Korea recognized our slain.

St. Paul's was filled to bursting, and its Queen
wore black, but in New York, the dimming skyline
remains a seared and brokenhearted scene
whose towering Twins we'll never glimpse again.


September 11, 2001


How can I ever put those scenes to bed --
the bodies tumbling from the upper floors,
imaginings of all the private wars
which must have marked the dying of the dead?

How can I fail to weep till I am dust,
remembering the ashen forms that filled
those streets, and must I love the ones who killed?
The answers come, "You cannot," and "You must."

The guy wrote each state governor promising slavery would be fine if they did not seceed from the union. The guy didnt care in the least about slaves. And even as the historical truth comes out this nation continues to think he was trying to free opressed people.
After reading this guys analysis of Lincoln I began to think there is hope.

Now I don't want to sound insesitive here, but I'm attempting a WW2 story, & one of my character's is sent to war (he's eighteen, so I assume he's old enough, maybe older than the 'going' age?) & to put it bluntly, I'm going to kill him off, but the story focuses on my main character in the country-side rather than the trenches which is why the way I want them to find out he's dead is the usual way one would go about in WW2 to let family know a relative had died. What happened? Did they send a letter, & if so, what did it basically say? Or when they had 'breaks' did someone go round & tell them? Any other useful info on the war would be very appreciated, too.

She wasn't that attractive as portrayed by Elizabeth Taylor, it is believed she had a son and that there has been quite a few Cleopatra's.

How to preserve a history for 1000 years

I want to preserve lots of things for the next generation including pictures, family tree, and lots of things which are part of me for the next millennium. Not for 100 years but for the year 3000. How do I do that? Is there is any institution or agency who can help me to do this?
