            <text>AUTUMN IN NEW YORK
by Paulette M. Glassman
  
The silent screams of 3,000 people suffocating in a single, senseless moment of murderous madness echo in the void of an empty skyline and we who've survived travel a path from tears to terror, orphans in the city of our birth.  

New York is awash in tears. We comfort each other and create new rituals to give order to our emptied lives:  we wave flags, light candles, sing, pray, come together for vigil, after vigil, after vigil. And still the pain comes. It is almost too much to bear.   

The one thing that everyone wants is what no one can have: our lives back. The way they were, the weeks ago that were another lifetime.   

We New Yorkers are built to be strong, and we will survive. But we, and our city, will never be the same.

The world has lost a magical place.
