1077 PLAYING WITH MYSELF 09-13-22

When I play alone,

I against I,

I never looses.

I follow all the rules:

WHITE ON RIGHT;

KING ON OPPOSITE COLOR;

NON-PASSANT;

FIGHT TILL THE BLOODY CHECK-MATE;

BEWARE THE STALE MATE;

BUT A POT IS AS GOOD AS GOLD.

And,

I can,

in the midst of battle,

rewind,

try another tactic,

re-stratigize.

How kind a blood sport is chess!

and a better opponent

I’ll never find!

We play the game

almost the same.

As though we are able

to read our mind.
