110 Stories of Ash
Oh what a tragedy,
on that cool bright day.
Oh what a tragedy,
it hits so hard this way.
When the first struck,
Maybe a mistake,
The second one hits,
The world is suddenly awake.
Military breached,
devastation unleashed.
Our terror,
Is nothing to theirs,
Will they jump out,
or go for the stairs.
People go down,
In the biggest crash.
In the end,
we think about,
110 stories of ash.
