“The window, at the moment of flame” by Alicia Ostriker, is a poem about 9/11 and the guilt one might feel for simply not being affected by it. Throughout the poem we see how a young person who is unaffected by all the war and death caused by the attacks might feel. Only seeing things through stories and images, but still feel a great guilt for such attacks. It shows us how we seem to take things for granted and understand how lucky we are to have the things we are until we lose them. This is laid out through impactful imagery, referencing the suffering of others and hyperbole to allow us to really be impacted by the horror of the event.

This is hyperbole, because it's not like the buildings took a new shape or were built up from the attacks, They were only damaged or destroyed

Men sobbing over graves

Buildings sculpted by explosion

Earth wasted bare and rotten—

And all this while I have been shopping, I have

Been let us say free

And do they hate me for it

Do they hate me

"You know—you see the pictures

Women carrying their bony infants"
How distance we feel from it, this emphasizes the fact the we see pictures and know it's horrible yet someone on the other side is living that, and it's not just a disturbing picture to them

And all this while far off in other lands

Thousands and thousands, millions and millions—

And all this while I have been playing with toys

A toy power station a toy automobile a house of blocks

On September 11th, 2001 the United States was attacked by the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda through the use of four hijacked passenger planes. This attack was made due to US military presence in the middle east and sanctions against Iraq and support for Israel. Following the attack the US launched a large scale war against terrorism and destabilized many nations in the name of counter-terrorism.
