Remember me as hardly golden

CHECK MATE

the battlefield is set up

the soldiers all in order

the king and queen are guarded

the players have begun

the war is going steady

their strategies are played out

so far no one is winning

but there'll always be an end

one by one the blacks are out

the whites are surely winning

but then the black knight comes in

and beats them all in order

the white player's frustrated

he looks but doesn't realize

that the game is almost over

the king is trapped and cornered
