The fall of Tripoli
The Sun illuminated the dawn
exposing war-torn empty streets
now hunted by Gadhafi loyalist
shooting almost anyone they see
…
Last nights fantastic jubilation
faded away on the morning fog
Gadhafi remains in hiding
two sons captured like a dog
…
Now the fighters rest and regroup
praying they were not dreaming
realizing the Government has crumbled
their future now more confusing
…
…and so ends the first day of the fall of Tripoli

Last Night
.
No worries – no worries
they finally took a stand
victory on the foundation of freedom
like a virus executing a plan
…
Hap-hazard and at times comical
were it not for all the horror
Tripoli falls – Gadhafi disappears
a vacuum looking for a restorer
…
It’s now 4;30 in the morning (in Tripoli – August 22, 2011)
need to get some sleep – will write more tomorrow.

About Sailor
Yup, it's me! The author of all you read here (except for the comments of course).
Having been asked to write a short article for "About Yourself", I was forced to labor (for a moment-or-two), upon what eloquent words I might use to explain myself. ................................................................................................................
This simple thought process yielded an even simpler solution. You need but read the words I have published here. All the writings (except for the Comments), are copyrighted ©, the moment the "post" is digitized and made available to the world (WWW) by the servers at namecheap, the best Hosting service you'll ever need. http://www.namecheap.com?aff=15525
Please read: "Proprietary Rights". .............................................................................................................
Now, to continue with "About Me".
I am sure you will find a few of my views embedded within my poems, and, if I would quit procrastinating, within the chapters of my future novels. ..............................................................................................................
