The strange piece was an exception
on the chessboard.
It wasn’t a piece or a pawn
not even a promoted pawn.
He was like the stone or the sword
always able to destroy barbarity
and to cut the oblivion.
It was also the memory
of an old book
of another world.
It was like a new instrument
in the classical orchestra
but able to play a concerto
and the whole orchestra was
at the end its complementary.
Different, but so different
that he was able
to create the harmony
via the complementary.
And that was the crucial point,
he was incomparable
and at the same time
absolutely compatible
with the souls.
