[bodytext] => They say a tyrant always finds a pretext for his tyranny Day turned to night but the tragedy and the freight stayed on everybody’s minds And now 8 years later you can still hear the gut wrenching tears even as you sleep at night. Just another day up in NYC BOOM… silence as bodies and debris fall to the ground BOOM plane 2 Armageddon has become reality judgment days here staring at the screen in udder disbelief Two twin bodies rising together and falling united like they came Black smoke filled the air The little girl clinching her mommy’s teddy bear the little boy headed to the football game could have never have known that he’d never again hear his daddy in the stands screaming louder than any other man The significance of red and blue fire engines whizzing to the rescue NYPD on the radios racing people to safety Thank you to our heroes To be a hero is to hear a weak mans cries, to inspire to strive to do what ever it takes Boarding a flight hijackers in disquise children waving to their parents As they watch the planes fly take to the skies So many unanswered questions Why flight 93? Why the pentagon at10:03?
