Hear me,
Great gates, your closed clang
Only waters my curiosity.
Let us be together like rust
while I lick shadows from my mouth
& cast spells on the grass.
I hear your hounds growl;
I'll feed them with water.
I'll wash their fur
With these terrible hands.
I bring good news from across
The still desert;
The children have departed
For school & now I've come
So we finish the war
Our fathers began years ago.
You'll be the king,
I'll be the castle.
First knock the bolt open.
It looks like you are getting closer to a "checkmate."Great poetry, and the way you play with the words is amazing!
Just to let you know, I am bad at chess. I'm still trying to learn, but my brain can't seem to cooperate with me. 🤭

Thank you Mell. I have not played in quite a while. Had an opportunity to do so at my alumni's gathering but I ended up playing a different board game.
I've played a few times and am attempting to understand the game, but I'm not very good at strategy. Thus I give up learning. 🤣🤣🤣
I read it over and over again but I can't seem to understand it. Can you enlighten me with this piece?
It's simply chess pieces talking. I gave them voice so they act like persons at war. In a deeper vein, two persons are fighting an old quarrel that started long before they were born and one has come to the other's house to continue it.
I see that is interesting give voice to chess pieces thank you
