Pawn Power

Pawn Power

In the corner
of our dusty dark box
we oppressed pawns convene
and plot to overthrow
the demented King
along with his court
of well heeled fools

Together we shall organize

Leverage
our strength in numbers advantage

Become an
overwhelming
unrelenting horde

Move en masse 
like tiny droplets
in a tidal wave 

Push our smug
oppressors clear off the board

This movement will change the rules

Level the tilted playing field

Make our world more just

Cause when all is said and done
there is no game without us
