My 9-11 Tribute poem "We Shall Never Forget" has been in print at least fourteen times...and that's only what I've managed to find through Google...it's not like anyone actually tells me these things...

Trying to make a list up of print stuff and some of the other things it was used for...I have my motives here, btw...

You really are starting to get celeb status. Really proud of you, Mr. Martini... you've earned every bit of the fanfare.

“Many people hear voices when no one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.”

Rest in Peace

I had mentioned a couple weeks back about how my 9-11 poem was plagiarized and submitted to a church bulletin...I wrote Pastor Tim Goodman, and he put this out in the current February edition of the bulletin...very nice, and touching btw...

Here is an excerpt...it's on page seven of the bulletin, me thinks...

Corrigendum


It has recently come to our attention that a poem commemorating 9/11 was published in our October newsletter that was incorrectly credited in terms of authorship. We sincerely apologize to the author, Mr. Alan Jankowski, who published this poem We Shall Never Forget as a tribute to those affected by the tragedy of 9/11. It was originally published in our newsletter with the intention of bringing more healing to those who are still hurting and comfort to those who are still grieving. It is a true blessing that there are individuals like Mr. Jankowski who are gifted in writing and we thank the author for sharing his gift with the world. For all of you who enjoyed the poem and were encouraged by its words, here it is again in its entirety. May we together continue to seek to participate in Jesus’ ministry of healing and reconciliation for anyone who suffers.
