A September Night

 When Auden wrote "September 1, 1939," he wrote this poem for the people during this time. At That moment in time World War II was just about to kick off.  People were scared, he was trying to tell the people to come together. It is interesting how the poem does describe the scene of 9/11, and how people felt. I believe it just coincidence that poem is reminiscent of 9/11, not that it was not a prediction of what was to come on that day. The poem does get its point across in both situation.
