found it

(written by an anonymous poet)




composition #1
Strange days have come
strange days have gone


am i the one


to take the pawn?


am i the queen


to rule the board?


or the just knight
with piece to hoard?


i shall not be


a king that sleeps
never to bleed
until the end


why not a rook?


No! i must defend!
the bishop, wise


careful each step


strengthens the ties.
