The day they died
My imagination was there;
Within the walls.
The information billowed
like a toxic plume
The weary of hart
gasping for untruths
The strong,bracing;
For the deluge
Bated breaths, silence
Cut through the hum.
Screams;
Within the walls,living
They are not immortal.
Under the sediment
Life falls silent
My imagination walks
Ladened, in history’s guilt.

Hi Cynthia,thanks for your comment on my poem. I have read your poem today and agree there is a similarity of thought in both poems.
