Two o'clock "Breaking news An aircraft strikes the World Trade Centre, New York. No further details" I continue baking bread, preparing vegetables for the evening meal. Three o'clock "It's believed terrorists are involved in the plane crash. In the past hour another plane has struck the Centre which has collapsed." Four o'clock I am glued to the TV, watching in disbelief the dreadful events unfold. I am frightened. For me For my family For my baby grandson For the world For mankind. I am alone yet united with all the fearful ones. And the others sing and dance on Godless streets.a not very coherent, but heartfelt account of how we received the news in the UK Written September 14th, 2001 © on Sep 14 2001 08:26 AM PST 0 • 1
