It forces the mind to strategize,
To think about the future,
To act,
And to ponder consequences.
Chess could make us better human beings,
It would teach us patience,
Dealing with loss,
And thinking our next move through.
However, there is something sinister about chess,
It's goal is to decimate a battle field,
To siege a king,
To take his queen,
And any soldier that stands in the way.
Chess is about cunning and sacrifice,
Just like life sometimes is,
However, the peril of living three moves ahead,
Is forgetting to enjoy the present that is here.
