SEASON OF REMEMBRANCE (SEPT. 11, 2001 TEN YEARS LATER)

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

in the best interest
of self
let love win
bulk at society's stare
and or frown
spurn the condescending tone
and push your way through the
over growth of too much
moral ineptitude
for other egos so adore
piling on
we live to find our own paths
others paths we cannot
unfairly influence
full scale fear is for cowards
fear in small doses occasionally
is acceptable
but keep in mind
we win by being who we are
and continuing to stay free
and proud of country
and countryman's innumerable
accomplishments
anger your enemies by
living well
that is the best revenge
of such 'Season Sf Remembrance'.............

Author's Notes/Comments: 

was thinking earlier about Sept 11, 2001 and how we are still the same country still just as proud to be Americans and how the memorial up in NYC where the twin towers use to stand looks so befitting. As I thought about all that such a calm peace came over me. Anyway, enjoy the poem............
