Plane
Crash
Flame
Glass
Smoke
Choke
People dead upon impact, people
Not knowing how to react, people
Stopped in their tracks, staring as
A second plane does as the first
Did. Sudden panic: stay or go?
What the fuck is going on? Does
Anybody know? Can anybody
Show them how to get out whole?
“Quickly! Get down the stairs to
Outside; don’t stop for no one,
Even if it tears you inside: this
Is your only chance, don’t take
It in stride!” All the time the bodies
Rained from on high, from those
Trapped inside way up in the sky.
“I want to know who is behind this?
‘Cause they are going to pay!
They will rue the day that they
Fucked with the U. S. of A.!”
“Shhh! There’s time for that later!
Just keep still and shut your mouth…
Wait, anyone hear that rumbling sound?”
That’s the terrible sound of steel
Supports snapping, one by one
They are cracking, and the flames
Keep lap-a-lapping as 110 floors
Drop, first the South, then the North,
And everyone trapped, praying as
a hopeless/ hopeful last resort.
