Dust becoming concrete
Ore
becoming steel
Aluminum scraped from the surface
On some far shore
Bone and blood
Growing over time
Lines of fate
Pulling forward to intertwine
It's all up in the air
It's where it all happens
Razor thin confusion
Collides with convention
One
Then two
Now three
And then four
Courses set
Unfamiliar hands at the controls
Into that
Which others avoid
One less
Flames flicker
Smoke pours
Shock washes
Again
And another is gone
Screams and cries
Images stream
Unbelievably low and fast
One flashes past a gate camera
Vanishing into steel and concrete
Leaving the grass swirling in it's wake
One now
Late to the show
Contents unsettled
Become one with the earth below
Concrete becomes dust
Steel reverts to ore
Aluminum becomes one
With the earth again
Bone and blood
Long since grown
Hit their points of fate
A decade ago this day
