It's Chess We Are Playing

by marrie

It's a game of chess.
In order to win the game,
First,
You have to know the rules.
Only then you can plan your moves.
Get to know which piece plays the best,
Which move is the worst,
How to set a trap
Or traps, perhaps.

Players.
They are not always eager,
They just play
Along the way,
Just to get through the day,
Hoping to feel gay.

Expectator.
Some may grasp strategies of the players,
Some may not.
They came to watch,
To kill some time,
Scratching heads trying to understand.
They often failed, though.

This is a game of chess.
You must know,
and understand,
and alert,
and master the board,
the pieces,
the opponent,
In order to win.

All the best!
