TWIN TOWERS POEM



Who will see you, oh mirrors for the lights 
shading the color of twin by-passing hours
on your skins reflecting the suns dancing
under the skies of the fast changing blues.

Twin sister towers peer in disgrace,
how can then fly the indifferent cloudscapes
with the memory of beloved and caresses
that for no more their sweetness is to be.

Today you sink when wounded on the flanks,
torn by the claws of the unexpected beast
that opened such gaps in graceful bodies
and to the bottoms vertically you go.

Dark sea of asphalt is there to welcome you
into rough waves of dust and dark smoke
to swallow in depths the vessels with the lives
that held the thought to be at home that night.
