Strict Are the Rules

Daniel Stuart Todd – 9/6/2017

So strict whose are rules of tournament chess,

they can bring tears even from the best,

Always make a choice within your head,

once you touch it, you’ve made your bed,

perfect describes neither I or nor you,

there is no “Oops, may I undo?”,

and in this game, should never be heard,

please pardon my French, “Merde!”
