4 Senryu Together Make One Story
Anno Domini 8 October 2021

Proud of his greatness
but by an imperfection
by devilish deeds
--------------------------------
this mighty tower
lost its greatness by fire
two foreign pilots
--------------------------------
had flown in this one
iron steel statue compact
shocking sight all died!
---------------------------------
I had gone upstairs
just before the millennium
never regretted

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I never thought these Twin Towers woud exist no more, my best study-friend visited me in the Netherlands and asked me whether I would go with her up to the Twin Towers and I happily replied: Of course, I go with you. She and I had never been up there, because it was before the millenium and asked me to go with her up the Twin Tower. I never regretted, the only photograph I have now from the TT and from my best study friend, they both are no more, my best study-friend died of high bloodpressure and the TT was set in fire by two foreign pilots who hired two airplanes. No one thought it would be the greatest fire ever in NY city. I am very sad, each year remembering this greatest attack, I am also reminded of my best study friend. She was of my age, IMAGINE!

A brilliant presentation portraying the America's worst terror attack. Yes, humanity will always remember the dastardly acts committed by Al Qaeda.

It's really a heinous act of the terrorists, too inhuman and foreign to civic sense. I had visited GROUND ZERO
