Four - September 25, 2001
 
From the four corners of the world,
visitors came to the fabled land
of milk and honey.
 
To go to the four cities of the North -
a city of patriots, a city were dreams 
are made, a city where liberty rung, and
the capital of the nation.
 
From all four directions -
people flocked,
to see the sights
that saw the envy of the world.
 
Such are the emotions that ran -
anguish, vengeance, sadness, and grief --
that we lament the death of many dreams -
security, faith, innocence and trust.
 
Four feelings that run rampant --
vengeance, hatred, justice ...
but where is hope?
