My Dream
Riding through

As a scimitar,
you cut through my moon light,
With grace you blossomed
in my dreams tonight.
Composing by the wind
you utter the sand storms' blight,
Winding across the flags
of love and fight,
But you turn
with the reflection of sunlight,
leaving me gasping
for our times' flight.
Now you finally came to my dreaming's delight,
to a snowless northern winter,

生活里天天充滿着美好充盈着愛。
我是達美航空公司15號班機的機組人員，2001年的9月11日從德國的法蘭克福機場飛越
大西洋，目的地是美國的亞特蘭大。
忽然，機艙內的布簾都拉了起來，我被叫到駕駛艙去見機長。在那兒，幾個機組人員都
面露嚴肅。機長給我一張紙條，這是從亞特蘭大機場辦公室發出來的訊息，上面寫著：
「所有私人航空公司飛往美國的航道全部關閉，請盡速降落在最近的機場，並請告知你
的降落目的地。」
沒有一個人對此訊息有隻字片語，我們都知道事態的嚴重性。我們需要立刻找到一個陸
地降落，機長決定最近的機場是離我們400英里遠的甘德, 紐芬蘭。
機長要求加拿大航空交通控制中心核准路線的改變，我們沒有被質疑而獲得即刻的核准
，後來我們才知道為何我們的要求毫不遲疑的被核准。
當我們正準備降落時，另一個訊息從亞特蘭大傳來，告訴我們在紐約地區有恐怖行動。
幾分鐘後，我們知道是劫機事件。
尚未降落前，我們決定跟乘客撒個白謊，說是一個小小的機械問題需要降落在最近的機
