Life and Chess
Uploaded by windrider on Sep 14, 2000
To run, to hide, to fight,
Are the questions we face, day and night.
To run, to hide, to fight,
You have options, choose well, choose right.
Life is like a game of chess,
So complex, it is one big mess.
There is always more and no less,
Attack or defend - that's chess.
In chess you defend, in chess you attack,
Road once taken, there's no turning back.
Of courage you do not lack,
But the odds continue to stack.
Life is the same, just like that,
You've gotta know when to hide and take the bet.
You'll learn to defend, you'll learn to attack,
Play the game well if you have the knack.
Timing is all that's important here,
What your opponent will do, you're never sure.
But when you know your time is near,
Hit hard fight back, never fear.
Ever-changing just like a dune,
You'll make people dance to your tune.
Life's a game, that is true,
But they who triumph over it are few.
Very few...
