.You have picked me out.
Through a distant shot of a building burning
you have noticed now
that a white cotton shirt is twirling, turning.
september 11th- 2001.
Such noise. So much noise. Screams, cries, men fell to their knees, weeping. Whirlwinds of sound around me, breath stolen, breath taken. Women sobbed, begged, pleaded. Wept for their children, siblings, parents. Each wept for someone, and as I listened to the wrenching cacaphony of voices- they merged into one.
.In fact I am waving, waving.
Small in the clouds, but waving, waving.
Does anyone see a
soul worth saving?.
Sirens, squealing of brakes. Shouts, urgency. We stood together, united in our horror by hands that did not- would not touch.
.And when will you come?
Do you think you are watching, watching
a man shaking crumbs
or pegging out washing?.
Burning. The scent of fire, fear. The two mingled so overpowering that more fell to the ground. Don't- I thought. You'll graze your knees. The enormity hadn't hit me yet.
.I am trying and trying.
The heat behind me is searing, searing,
but the white of surrender is not yet flying.
I am not at the point of launching, leaving.
Then the thought comes to me. He is in there. People are in there. My eyes close. Suddenly I am tasting dirt, along with my screams.
.But tiring, tiring.
Sirens below me are wailing, firing.
My arm is numb and my nerves are sagging.
Do you see me, my love. I am failing. Flagging.
I hear him, beyond the roaring towers. "Let's dance." He says to me, a whisper in my ear. "Dance with me, Alice." I turn, expecting to see him beyond the falling ash. I don't. "Don't cry, my love." Comes his whisper in the wind. And so I imagine I am taking his hand.
I imagine I am dancing with him one last time, as the snow begins to fall.
-This has a very personal meaning to me. Today is the birthday of my Uncle, John, who was killed in the 9/11. I wanted to show him that we all love him so much, and that I have never forgotten him. This is written from the viewpoint of his wife, Alice, who watched as the towers fell. The poem is 'Out Of The Blue', by Simon Armitage. The song at the top is 'River Flows In You.' played by Yiruma.

Pretty much just a mind-dump again.
