After September 11th
By Mary T. Hoffman

Day after day, night after night,
Media bombard us with fright after fright;
Till science fiction and armed might
Meld together: a surreal sight.
We watch the world in a digital fight.

What has happened to "peace on earth"
Promised with our Savior's birth?
It's given way to human pride
Of those whose hearts and souls have died.
