They plunged into the hub
Of the financial symbol
On that terrible, clear day.
Mission: to bring us to our knees.

He used it as an excuse
To attack and invade,
Spending as much US dollars
He possibly could.

Perhaps in the end
They got want they wanted:
A super nation
Weakening financially
Due to excess spending
In so many areas.
Opening the door for
Other countries to take
The top spot
On the financial stage.

9.11.
The shockwave is
Still being felt.
