Strategy and Tactics

I've been torn by hooks
Crushed by burdens
Life is not a game
But it is still played
Stolen from the womb
I was forsaken
Queen takes Rook
Protected by Pawn
The chessboard is our tomb
Each vulnerability
Exposed
With every chance taken
I refuse to capitulate
Never tip my King
So hunt me across the field
Take no prisoners
Have the trumpets call out
Announce my doom
Chase my dreams
And then slay them
Corner me and take me down
Plan your attack
Plan everything
Down to the final move
