SOMETIMES

Sometimes you have to bring its King alone

Exposed and trapped - Checkmated ...

Don’t even let its Queen make a move once

Enclosed and setback – Negotiated ...

No Heroes born twice

You make your moves with the best choice

And there you’ll recognize how a history

Cannot be written for good otherwise...
