The board is set, the men come alive.
Piece by Piece, turn by turn.
They all move to capture the other's king.
Pawn takes pawn, bishop takes rook,
knight takes bishop then rook,
queen takes knight "Check."
Blocks, and continues
Queen takes the last rook,
then bishop takes... bishop takes...
...My queen..! My chances drop to 10.
5 moves later-....oh ****!
"Check Mate!"
I've lost
I cannot play chess to save my life.
