Alsab

Alsab (1939–1963) was an American Hall of Fame Thoroughbred racehorse.

Alsab was voted the 1941 U.S. Champion Two-Year-Old Colt and in his three-year-old season in which jockey Basil James rode him to a win in the Preakness Stakes and second-place to Shut Out in both the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes, he won 1942 U.S. Champion Three-Year-Old Colt honors.

On September 19, 1942, Alsab defeated the 1941 U.S. Triple Crown Champion Whirlaway in a match race at Narragansett Park in Pawtucket, Rhode Island.

In the Blood-Horse magazine List of the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century, Alsab was voted #65. In 1976, he was inducted in the United States' National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame.

    With In The Solitude Of Cemetery Soil

    by: Willow Wisp

    Within this solitude of cemetery soil
    The breeze embraces me
    With the hand of death
    And the marble angels
    Study us with spying eyes
    Relaying messages to god
    About the evil walking atop
    The slumbering dead
    Explaining the feeling of this
    Tranquil environment
    Is to explain the feeling
    Of a first kiss
    And to reminisce about the ones
    Who were tortured to live causes me to weep
    As I watch their loved ones cry
    Tombstones are beautifully inscribed
    With homage to a former contemplator
    Who was consumed by the rite of passage
    An eventual obligation
    To become as one with the earth
    And now their bodies
    Which were once beautiful
