nine was was

September 11, 2015

It seemed a time of respect.

Skies were skies,
no chalky lines.

Only bird, cloud
flag.

Booty and bullets
vanished.

Terrorism was not yet
entertainment.

Reflection and restraint
a  brief national value.

Never to return,

We lived briefly
in the eye of a blood storm.
