I read it in your gaze

the hesitation whether we're made white
by the black

or darkened by the light

if these rigid lines truly aid
or only hinder

how we drift between hues
across the game board

landing in squares
defined by the observer

in the shadow of unspoken rules
not everything is as it seems

like the squares on his checkerboard
in essence, always grey
