night after night
with bloodshot eyes
clouded mind
vengeful heart
Cooper reported on Mubarak’s oppression
Mubarak moved out
Cooper moved onto Libya
but Gaddafi’s thirst for blood was not easy to leach out
still, Cooper held on with missionary zeal
the fear developed that Cooper will implode
and the world will lose a fanatic journalist
it didn’t happen
the Nature felt mercy for him
so now the CNN soldier is in
the land of the rising Sun
and the sea of the drowning hopes
Cooper is in the company of
another CNN soldier, Dr. Sanjay Gupta
to keep his blood pressure level normal
