A king creates his kingdom
Full of pride and honour.
He pleases royalties and peasants
for the trade of chess pieces
placed upon a wooden board.
Yet,
the crown that carries the king
has chosen a new prey.
It abandons the king, now a toppled pawn.
The king who had once owned fortunes
falls to his knees,
the pride he had built now lost
with a soft push.
A new king rises,
restarting a new game of chess.
The pieces are set one by one;
they steadily try to balance once again.
And with a wicked grin,
he places the crown on his head
ready to start another game.
A new era has begun.
