These chess players play a game that seems eternal.
How long have they been playing it? Since time exists. And they will continue to contest it continuously as long as time lasts.
Initially the squares on the board were black and white. Clearly white and darkly black. Any casual observer would have said that the white ones were a representation of good and the black ones were a representation of evil.
But the difference between the two – evil and good – has become so blurred that the boxes have all gone grey. Sometimes good is confused with evil and evil with its opposite, so much so that players end up not knowing whether they are playing black or white pieces, or whether they occupy a black or white square.
I don’t know how much longer this game will last.
Perhaps only those who in very distant times only played with white pieces know this.
Perhaps only those who have played the black pieces only in a forgotten beginning know this.
See you tomorrow!…
