Quantum mechanics<span> (QM -- also known as </span>quantum physics<span>, or </span>quantum<span> theory) is a branch of </span>physics<span> which deals with physical phenomena at nanoscopic scales where the action is on the order of the Planck constant. It departs from classical </span>mechanics<span> primarily at the </span>quantum<span>realm of atomic and subatomic length scales.</span>
Explanation:
His first statement in the poem does the contrasting, which says;
"Yesterday, I lay awake in the palm of the night".
In effect he was saying just as an innocent child goes to bed, so the victims were alive just the day before horrific event of September 11.
Further into the night the innocent child experiences a change, which was expressed with the words;
"A soft rain stole in, unhelped by any breeze". This saying indicates how the innocent people experienced a change that made them victims of a horrific event that claimed their lives.
I'd say that it is true. It makes sense. You call a friend to tell them something. You FaceTime a friend to see their reaction to something funny, etc. Guys communicate in different ways than girls.
