castle at chess 1415


a couple of billion chess players know that
to castle early in the game arrays
the board's battling colors into
a predictable dynamic expansion

the king seats in a temporary refuge
his knight, bishop, and rook look rather tough
but, inattention, a lack of imagination
can flush him out like castor oil does the guts

propacundical adversaries in
a sicilian dragon formation
can advance their casuistic sophistry
with a fork built on falsehoods

these exturbatous misinterpretations
cause convulsions in DC catacombs.




Exodus 6:30

And Moses said before the LORD,
Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips,
and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me?
