Offensive

Driving home from rehearsal at BSO last night, I found myself on a beautiful clear night looking over the skyline of lower Manhattan. A sort of wave rolled over me, just a few days after September 11, of what I saw that morning in 2001 and the events of the weeks that followed. I thought about the dislocation, the lingering horror in my coworkers’ eyes, the desolation and destruction and dust all over the neighborhood I worked in. The smoke in the air, the troops in the streets, the shuttered stores, how hard it was to simply get to and from work.
After I got off I-78 in Maplewood, there was a car in front of me with a bumper sticker, “Remember 9/11? The left has already forgotten!”
If you’re out there reading it, I’ll simply be polite and say, no I haven’t. I wish I could.
Oh, and you’re a disgrace to your country.
