A Redeeming Pastime
The best game in town
must be playing chess with God.
The omniscient old dude
really ****** up by installing
that pesky free will.
Now he knows every possible
move you can make, but not
the one you
will
make.
Scholar's mate or Fool's mate;
pieces of cake, both sweet
redemption in the mortal mouth.
