Check Fate


Game time!


black and white
chess
combatants clash


for no other
reason


than they
are different

and


the rules
they did
not write


demand they
wage battle


strategic struggle

attack and
counterattack

set clever traps

exploit weakness

sacrifice expendables

to the bitter end

Winner owns 
the board

losing pieces

vanquished
to a coffin box

until the 
next scheduled
carnage

when opposing
forces will reassemble

for another
round 
of conflict
