" 9-11 " E ven as the day dawned bright, L eprous souls and dark E ntombed us in a murderous night, V iperous and stark. E vil pure, in vengeance steeped, N ecrotic, maliced brew ~ S inister in its deceit, E merging, born anew... P lunging hatred's saber deep through hearts of innocents; T rust purloined from our safe keep, each man's for the next. E mbers' glow in ashes black, impervious to tears... M ourners shaken by attack, B attered and in fear ~ E nduring, though our agony; R esolved, our nation's will ~ T hose who champion evil deeds W ill know the fires of hell. O nward will we carry high T he torch, still burning bright; H onor bound, prepared to die... O ur faith erodes their might. U nstoppable, unwavering, S hared in good men's hearts ~ A loud let freedom's mantra ring, N o foe curtail its spark. D eath was not the victor here as horror stalked this day, O n bended knee, our voices clear, God heard a nation pray. N e'r forgotten, wounds that yawn, yet in the healing, strength ~ E ven as new bright days dawn, triumphant over angst.
