A CHESS MATCH

the pawns are like forwards,
attacking as if broad majority
in apprehensive order,
well, they are truly more of
cannon-fodder

the horses swing
via swastika springs
as politically impolite
old Arian knights

the castles, so isolated and stupid,
must lodge poets and/or politicians
banished on duty

the bishops move
in devious ways

the queen
under those veils
cheekily trails
all about the scene

and the king
is a poor thing,
squeezing in the corners
with his wanna-be mourners,
severely bound to have
his head severed
