9/11 Memorial Spoken Word Performance
My name's Anne/ And when I lost my father on 9/11, I just didn't understand/ It happened while I was in pre- k/ I had on my US flag shirt, road the cheese bus to school like any other day/ After nap time we found out problems were real deep/ But I didn't realize because I was still half asleep/ Went to day care/ Dad never came there/ I had to stay there/ Osama, Why is it that you don't play fair..?
