"Oh the humanity"
The words of tragedy,
Repeated throughout,
American history.
"Oh the humanity"
The terror among us,
The flames that rise,
A burning mess.
"Oh the humanity"
When humanity is,
The biggest problem,
and the deepest pain.
"Oh the humanity"
Don't you know,
That we the people,
Will rise again.

9-11 here already. 13 years. The children born in 2001 are teenagers, who may not even understand just how terrifying it was for families, and how devastating it was for the loved ones. I used the line "Oh the humanity" which was in a newscast when the Hindenburg exploded, because it seemed fitting. This is humanity, and I wish we could stop it.
