That won’t disappear
Heightening my despair
Illumining phantoms in the midnight air
Scorching flame in the atmosphere
Frightening, engulfing fear
Erupting, corrosive in the air
Attacking, inflaming fear
Reminiscing of dark-age despair.
Strong and very vivid lines excellently conveying the pangs and traps of fear. Only one who has been there can write so well about what fear is. Superb!

A well articulated poem written with insight on fear that gripped THE LAND OF LIBERTY after 911. You captured the scenario very well. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
