United We Stand

WE ARE ALL CITIZENS OF THE WORLD

Because in a New York Minute.....everything can change

Support freedom

Orginally, this section of the Corner was created to stand as a tribute to the events of September 11, 2001. Looking at the world now, I thought it time for an upgrade. Hurricanes, bombings, snipers in the street...fear seems to have become a part of the world's life today. No longer can we merely say 'we are all Americans', it is now to the point where we must acknowledge that 'we are all one'.

So, though I will leave the orginal 9/11 material posted below, these pages stand now not only as a memorium to the loss of innocence and life that was 9/11/01, but as a call for aid to those effected by disaster every day, to those killed and lost in the flood waters of New Orleans, to those under fire in wars that are not theirs.

White, black or red...whatever the outer colour of our skins...our hearts go out to you all

A Canadian Tribute I Am Your Flag (They Come to)America The Sept. 11 Song

The House of the Watchers\
From the Ashes

My thoughts go out to all those who lost their lives in the tragedy of September 11th 2001, and to those who sacrificed themselves trying to save them. Since I am a Canadian, there is little I can do to aid our neighbours in their time of sorrow, but the following poem is my personal tribute to the world's loss.

We are numb
Shock emcompasses our forms like a shroud, numbing our feelings
Masking our pain
Fear extends her cold finger to brush against our minds
Sending chills to our spine
And knots to our stomach
This was supposed to be a generation of peace
But peace, like fragile glass, has shattered
It's sharp glistening fragments lie scattered around our feet
Thier crystal edges cutting the innocent
Bringing tears to the eyes of the world
Leaving our sense of security in tattered shards
And yet as the shock leaves us
We pick up the needle and sew those shards together
And pick up the peices
To create a stronger world
For United we stand, Divided we fall.
