The 9 11 Curse Poem by Ramona Thompson

This one just came to me today. I do not know why.

It bothers me deeply. Not been a good day.

Thanks in advance for your comments.

No escape
No matter what you do
No matter where you go
It will follow and find
You will never be safe
Never be happy
As long as that dark cloud lingers
As long as the truth remains unaccepted
Unconfessed

You will be haunted
Gravely stalked by those ghosts
Those ghosts that you so crassly refused
To help
To die with
There were to be no survivors
No tales of horror to linger and hurt the families left behind
And so now the reaper waits
Waits for that one perfect moment for you to make
Your last fatal mistake

Some things are just meant to be
Like this
Like your deaths
Tombstones call
Why do you not answer?
Do you really feel nothing?
No guilt at all?
You know that you belong among them
Why do you still fight so hard not to join them?

There are no doubts
No mistakes
The list was made
Written by the divine one's own hand
Who do you believe you are to try and ruin the higher one's plans?
All the close calls you have had since are no mere accidents
It is the fates and the heavens calling out foul
Crying out for the their justice at last
Dare you to live on denying them any longer?
