What a waste of time to read these rhymes,
Your doggerel is not neat nor very sweet,
So for the love of Pete,
Let's stop this mess,
And play more chess!
time to push
more chunks of wood
(Brooklyn says
we don't talk good)
Chess on-line brings me much remorse,
Oh god I miss social-intercouse !!
intercourse with an r of cause !!
There once was a pirate with hooks
Who traded his queen for two rooks
As the crew set sail
They started to wail
The mate was a bishop, gad zooks!
The queen was mean beyond measure
Taking rooks gave her great pleasure
Her cackle was vile,
She ran down the file
And snatched my rooks for her treasure
Johnny Zugzwang sold his chess books,
Taking the money, his hands shook.
30 silver coins in pocket,
He was gone like a rocket.
His last performance was bad.
His opening knowledge was sad.
Pawn structure like broken teeth,
Endgame inadequate at least.
His tactics brought him shame,
Time to try another game.
Yet one last book sat on his shelf,
Written by Nimzovitch himself.
Themes in the volume were direct,
Central control, over protect.
Soon beating class B players,
Nimzo answered his prayers!
there once was a chess champ named Steinitz
who deemed all his would-be foes half-wits
now he's watching God's moves
and in general approves
(though occasionally he still will kibitz)
that doughty chess champion Lasker
was one of life's great multitaskers
mathematician and scholar
he won many a dollar
by proving the hypocrite's unmasker
Two lines diverged in a game, and I --
I took the one less travelled by,
and that has made all the difference

Chess with God
I had just won twelve chess games in a row
When from the sky came a heavenly glow
A loud voice of authority echoed from all around
The birds in the trees flew down to the ground
And bowed in humble reverence at the sound
Though in a crowded park I was now alone
All the people around me had turned to stone
When God appeared before me in the form of a man
"Enough of this!" yelled the great I Am
"I tire of your smugness, you think you're the best
So I'm here to put your skills to the test!"
He sat down at a chessboard
I followd his lead
Then as a token of human greed
I asked for a wager and He agreed
"Then if I win make me wealthy,
Take away my need for food and drink,
and give me your job for merely a week."
By my audacity He was impressed
He chuckled and made His one request,
"Believe in me."
"Only if you win," I stubbornly breathed,
"I've got you already, can't you see?
You can't cope with Chess' simplicity.
For the very same reason checkers thwarts me
Your great intellect will spell your defeat."
He grinned and moved his pawn to D3
"Believe me in Checkers I have my degree
and when it comes to Chess I cannot be beat."
Throughout the whole game He anticipated my moves
It looked early on a liklihood that I'd lose
Til there in the endgame I finally saw it
A knight fork to put even God in a fix
I took his queen then his castle
When I won it was worth all the hassle
I stood up and shouted, "Hurray, victory!"
But to my suprise God just smiled at me.
"I win!" He bellowed with glee
"And herein lies the mystery,
You're just a pawn, controlled by the King
I've been playing myself, that's why I'm not beat!"
He flew up into heaven with a righteous laugh
And I had no choice but to tip my hat
I've learned indeed God can't be beat
Because He's a cheat.
So far some very interestingly clever, extremely cryptic and even mildly risque rhymes. What more could a girl ask for?
