9/11 - The Jumpers (Free verse) by Caducus
Kodak graves
Imperial canvasses,
where the fallen made impact
as flesh spears
in soft pools
of voyeurs eyes.
Kodak graves,
desecrated by censorship
by memory assassins
in a white house
built on the land of free speech.
It happened,
pavements were portals
leaving a symphony
of haunting vellum drums.
It happened,
Allah was a household name
his beard an omen in cirrhus clouds,
Islamâs message was a 747
on a jouney to America
crash landing on Muslims.
It happened.
The jumpers jumped.
Twin towers fell
and what has risen ?
