The Pentagon At Risk

(Respectfully dedicated to the victims of

 hijackers at the Pentagon, Sept. 11, 2001)

 

 

An airplane suddenly jumps into the Pentagon;

Causing a series of explosions and destruction.

Sending up a plume of smoke into the blue sky;

Potomac river and the Pentagon City are very quite.

 

Nobody knows this moment in the great country;

Because of its tolerance and diversity.

Killing all on board and other members of the Pentagon;

This brutal attack is enormity and disguisement.

 

The deadly crash by the acts of terror!

The terrible attack by the suicide hijackers.

Causing great loss of life and tremendous damage;

The evildoers to be severely executed and punished.

 

We mourn with those who have suffered great loss;

The perpetrators must be brought to justice at any costs.
