The Voices of 9-11-02

I heard the voices
of the living
through my headphones and radio
reading the names
of the dead
standing where I stood
one year ago
10th Street and University Place
gazing upon
the empty space
where the towers once
mightily stood
and my own voice repeated
again and again in my head
to no one in particular
and to everyone
please let us learn
to live together in peace
please let us learn
to live together in peace
