a stage with limited seating
we are but only pieces,
pawns looking for a spot to fill
gentle camaraderie hides within
its trenches, feelings of envy
each of us, equipped with our skillset
ready to do battle, to be ripe for picking
it’s common courtesy, a noble gesture
acknowledging your opponent on the other side
a regiment fabricated to suit your own needs
sharpen the mind, focus on your strengths
neither side yielding, an anticipated duel indeed
but, to the victor, who’s granted the spotlight
they shall remain standing for a bit longer.
