This poignant selection of artifacts-and their stories-from September 11 provides an official, lasting record of that day's experience. In both text and photography, the story of September 11 is told through a selection of powerfully moving artifacts from the 9/11 museum's collection that serve as touchstones to the day and its aftermath. From crushed FDNY trucks to the steel that was pierced as planes struck the Twin Towers, from victims' property pulled from the wreckage and returned to families (who later donated the property to the museum) to spontaneous memorials collected from around Ground Zero, the array of objects tell complex and often surprising stories. Poignant artifacts as monumental as the Vesey Street staircase-which offered an escape for thousands fleeing the towers-and as intimate as a loved one's wedding band or last recorded phone message are selected to illuminate people's experiences during and after September 11, 2001, and February 26, 1993.

Poetry is utilizing words as raw materials but instead of creating a product that you can touch it is creating a picture, an idea or story in a meaningful pattern. Thus, you are creating a product that you can't physically touch but it touches you...emotionally, you can't see with your eyes but you can visualize in your mind, and poetry has no limits or barriers. It invokes thoughts and powerful feelings in both listeners and readers. Afterthoughts is an autobiography in which poetry is the chosen literary genre. Each poem is a depiction of love found, love lost, heartbreak, hardship, success, inspiration and much more that I have experienced in my lifetime.
