As I don’t consider myself a good Poem writer

I am using my strong emotions as a rider

To describe how it affected me as a nine-to-fiver

Made me heartbroken to see my Job disappear

Helped me muster up the courage to gather

Knowledge to become an Independent Contractor

Become a creative income generator

Become an Invincible Service Provider

Become a compassionate soul enricher

More importantly, do my best to become a better creature.

Finally a Poem creator!

Haha! Not bad!

At last, I did end up expressing how I was affected by 9/11 by way of a Poem.

Thank you, God.
