Chess is war in measured unit steps Beauty brought from a silent clef Freedom from drones of cliches Offering illusion, freshness.

Chess is unownable, yet community makes Trickling progress, sudden death Mocking comprehension, bounding past instinct space Chess is grand pilgrimage from aging to progress.

Yet there is only one chess, with chess its nearest profit.
