Chess Haiku:
On sixty-four squares
Commingled thoughts calculate
Checks and balances
Add yours!
Cold summer ballroom,
Outside passer, good bishop,
Yet endgame was “meh.”
Tensions run high
Warrior girl sacrifices
Victory is nigh!
Center felt squishy:
in the stale morning air, no
b7 pawn smiled.
Endless debating
No one’s opinion is changed
Yup, that’s the Forums.
Ding, ding, ding…We have a winner!
luft
Pianissimo?
Exchange Slav Chebanenko?
Kids play boring draws.
The flower of …a6
blooms beloved in sandstorm
as Najdorf unfolds.
sacrifice the queen
and now sacrifice the rook
miscalculated?
Heh.
Queenside Leukopenia (after Ezra Pound)
The apparitions of these light squares round pawn chain
Petals on a wet black bough.
Delicious petals, at that.
Feeble Imagism refuted by 1…c6?
