Another Day

9-18-02



I'm hollow and I'm not sure what



I'm writing 'cause I can't feel



My insides



And I'm unsure of why



Hello, what a tragedy



My welcome to American society



Just another day



Gone down in history



What's happening is still a mystery



I close my eyes



See fire climbing



And people dying



With many crying



Including us



I watch the dusk



Go down in dust



With so much of our



Lives

Hey. So how are you? This poem is great. I'm not even a patriotic person.
