I am the scars minutes before the sunlit dawn...

The Wall

and sang “Happy Birthday” in the rain, 
while she washed away her bloody pain.

means a long winter.

The tradition is...

A boy and board in Brooklyn
bedeviled by the breath of baroque battles
bemused with a belligerent brain beauty
and befriended by battlefield bravado, 
the chessmen championed his ego
wickedly warring to a visionary's voodoo,
those soldiers of black and...

Across figurative and literal blackened white board...

Where death of democracy writ large,
nevertheless psychological strength predominates
unlike earlier chapters of mein kampf.
