New Year Discovery

I realized this New Years 
That I am not going to be wold chess champion 
However I did win the last game I played 
I played with a woman who plays chess!!
NOBODY LIKES TO LOSE!!!
You out there in the darkness
Play a game or two of chess!  
Write a poem about the game!!
There have been some very good poems about chess
I recently sold an article about boxing!!!!
I realize that it probably should be banned
But I do like to watch it sometimes
There is a book out there called "The Perfect Art"
All poems about boxing
Be careful what you write about 
You may get punched in the snout if you are not
This country is relatively free
But nowadays divided
REALLY DIVIDED

Glad you wont the chess and bravo for the publication - proof you can make money from writing even if its a subject which can be controversial like boxing - am amazed it is still allowed with the injuries and deaths but its like our TT races - its like a drug and people still take the risks. Happy New Year Matthew:-) hugs Jan xx
