Chess Pawn O’Graffer

I am a pawn
I have been reborn
I am like a fawn
Or fresh cut lawn
The old me was torn
The old me, I mourn
The new me is corn

I am a plant
Of which doesn’t say “can’t”
For I can do all
I am seven feet tall
Harvesting the raw energy of the sun
Whilst stationary, not very fun
Then I am consumed by a human

For the cycle to repeat
Because we all have to eat
And I’m hungry for more
But my tummy is sore
This grand game of chess
Leaves me wanting less and less
Less and less and less and less and less

I write stuff. Mostly comedy. Probably unfunny, if it's not your cup of tea drink coffee.
