It is 9/11, and I really did forget. It wasn’t until I got to work this morning and heard an announcement commemorating the day that I realized what day it was. I heard someone say recently that we all, those of us who remember, need counseling for the trauma.
I don’t say anything against the sentiment, only I feel it’s not something I want counseled away with; I want to heal, I want our nation to heal, but not forget.
And when the towers fell
I was too young to tell
of the forewarning knell
from that yet unstruck bell.
