The Game

It's one of those games that one can play, offline and on, with a striking resemblance to that board game on black and white, but without all the pieces, save the King, Queen, and the pawn.

The Queen and the pawn are in white, with the King donning black, possibly out of compulsions on political correctness!

The pawn plots to tackle the King, who, being stubbornly defended by the Queen, has no role in the game other than mocking the pawn.


Crushed by the might of the white, 


the pawn bleeds red 


and disappears without a trace 
in the infinite charms of the King in black.

Every pawn that plotted to be the King has to fail and fall in a Heep
