A Pandemonium Of Doom (9/11) Poem by Emmanuel Kwabena Woyome

A Pandemonium Of Doom (9/11)



Like an arrow piercing through the night,

so was the pandemonium of doom.



Destruction stretched forth its hands-

and the innocent shook it,

out of ignorance.



The plea of children above suspicion,

fell upon deaf ears.

Wherefore, into the oceans fell their tears.



The perversity of fools-

coifured in a cataclysmic upheaval of shock,

rained on the blameless,

perspectives without filters.



Folly and cowardice pulled down the foundation of peace-

whereby life and death spoke one language with ease.



In a moment of an explosion of embarrassed silence,

the whole world stood in a breathtaking sadness.



And beguiled by idiocy,

the guiltless lay in holy solitude.



This indeed was a pandemonium of doom.
