Thirteen, in black and white, in 1957;
thumb to mouth, another move
to emphasise his youth, or something
sly and Shakespearean?

A thoughtless thoughtful pose
captured by the camera, on the cover,
in the headlines.  In monochrome,
this moment when he will sacrifice

his queen and so defeat a master.
A good man who does not deny
the child the satisfaction
of checkmate.


Donald Byrne vs Bobbie Fischer (1956)
