Trev's USA Tour 2011
The second poem written at Bar 13 New York dedicated to the passengers and crew of Flight 93 I visited the flight 93 Memorial Site, I left the small blue shirt badge from my days as a Firefighter, on the memorial artefact stand.
02.05.11 - 82)
Just another flight taking of in the morning light
Cargo safely stored, no one knew of the danger on board
At a given time the terrorists acted
Swift and deadly the plan re-enacted
A moment when all seemed insane, they’d taken over the plane
The plane to its target was turned, terrorism hatred burned
But soon their hopes would dissolve,
They’d overlooked American resolve
For the passengers no hope
But they would not just sit and mope
Like damp lettuce on a plate
and quietly accept their fate
Flight 93 would not attack,
Its target the passengers would fight back
Cell phone messages and text to a loved one,
Then the fight back begun
Refusing to give or yield
Bringing flight 93 down in a Pennsylvanian field
Some good people died that day,
So terrorism would not have its way
So terrorist beware will you never learn
How easy the tables can turn
Keep looking over your shoulder
You will find your victims are much bolder
Your plans coming to grief
By the real martyrs for their belief
