"How Could They..."

I looked at the calendar
I had to double check:
I was correct-
Today IS the day
But not a peep!
Am I the only one?
Did they all die in vain?
All 2,996 of them.
Maybe it's been overshadowed today
By Remembrance Sunday.
Understandable I suppose...
What with today being 9/11.

Dulwich Poet 9th November 2014.

(A short one, a play on Americans reading dates on the calendar month first.)
