The Statue
Cried Today
The Statue
cried today
a lonely tear rolled down her cheek
There from the harbor
she watched the ashen plume
She was witness to horror unspeakable
To death
Death of Americans
Death of innocence
She watched the chaos
Felt the fear
The heartbreak of a nation challenged, wounded
What consequences of this
How many freedoms will be lost
How many comforts tested
How many compromises made
Who is our enemy
Where
Everywhere
Omnipresent......
The Statue cried today
Gloria
