Love, Dinner and Backgammon
I was debated by Sweetheart that,
“all Wars are made by Men“
“Its in the school yard over girls“
I correct her,”where all warring begins“
`
“See we have been lead to believe that,
Kingdoms are conquered by kings”
Yet, the most powerful piece on a
chessboard, is in fact the Queen“
`
So I won the Debate, boldly
at the dinner conversation with my lady.
“Aah well, Checkmate“, she yielded to me,.
“wash up the dishes, take out the trash
…and I will be upstairs waiting.”

“Backgammon” just sounded sillier… To Bad I cant remember how to play.
The only thing that is clear to me is:
The “queens” actually rule the “game boards”…
partly by allowing the “Kings” think they do.

yes the queen is the strongest on the board but one can win without. more then that any pown can become a queen but even the queen cannot become a king. the king can also have 9 queens around him.
in life too, in a way. princess were moved to other lands in order to make a peace or to astablish unity between 2 kingdoms.
true though, that by the bedroom the queen had some power, nobodey knows the extent of a queen on her king in the back rooms.
interesting subject any how….
