Today in Minnesota on a bridge above park a bagpipe player played Amazing Grace at the times the towers were struck. He was my first reminder of this day. All the poems affected me, but Szymborska's hit me the hardest. Thank you.

Every one of these poems effectively captures aspects of the traumas suffered 22 years ago. Thanks so much for curating these for us. 🙏
