40 of 93
timing is everything
time now to say it,
had 11, 77, and 175
had what you had,
been shown what you saw,
heard what you heard,
told what you told,
they'd have done
what you did
still, no matter
self-destiny is
inherent in us all,
most apparent in you,
oblivion faced with fear,
but still faced...eyes open,
outshines dark hatred.
10 after still brings
deep sorrow and pride

The 40 of 93 showed terrorism the faces of courage and, in so doing, shaped not only their destiny but also ours. Thank you for sharing this somber remembrance.
