En Passant

They serve Democracy
on a chess table
with Morton's Fork.

Pawns are skewered
this way, unevenly roasted
for the sake of majority rule:

"Political equality
are for those who belong
to the same rank and file."

Come Passover, rooks
are poised to take flight
by dessert, to storm

the endgame fortress
of fundamental freedoms
threatened to fall

to a Fool's mate
