Youth vs. World is the battle played by chess pieces on a board. The mind is the King, the spirit is the Bishop, the flesh is the Knight and the emotional wall of defence is the rook. Every trend of thought, like pawns, explores the world around in hope of achieving knighthood, maybe a kingdom. Or shall the ponderous whims of love and loss lead the Queen to protect her King? Shall a mere thought spawn vast worlds of questions and answers? Questioning answers like pawns finally achieving knighthood?
