Stalemate
This universe is a chequered board
Where facts are sacrificed as pawns
To defend ideas antediluvian.
Our horizon is constantly receding
Knowledge and ignorance clash
Ending in a stalemate....

Untouchables
In this poor life we’ve been condemned to die,
Forever stuck in our unwanted caste;
Pawns, broken by society,
Hunched at the pyramid's base we lie;
We are the untouchables of mankind.

others think he's a lust laden bum
a devil pushing pawns just for the fun
but strip the smoke from the mirror
and the image becomes much clearer
he's just a bloated reflection of us....

Tried to salvage his pawns and queer Queen
Far too late t’was end-game
Even his Knight was lame
So he reset rules and horsed his Queen !

Losing the Throne Hc
as two knights advance
three pawns make defensive moves
one queen is captured
Two advancing knights have made it known
Three pawns cannot keep one queen on the throne

Xi Froth
The snow has turned dirty
exposing the filth of man-unkind
one year later -still standing in our corners.
At the masquerade ball
six hundred sixty six feet apart..
the Xi virus-whirling in the middle
making red froth with his favorite pawns....
