The Game of Dumb

Ever played Dumb?

the one where you move the chess pieces around on red and black squares
the game goes when you can move a step at a time to get to your opponents side of the board
slowly step by step you advance

but there'll eventually be a time when you need to sacrifice
cause you got to eat or be eaten to further advance along the board
after much sacrifice and hardships you go through you eventually get to the end of the board which is also your opponents side of the board

then
this is the point when you're "Dumb"-ed
and they stack a second chess piece above the one that made it
everything then returns to square one
which you have to continue killing off the other pieces until a victor arises



isn't it stupid, as in dumb to go through all that suffering and hardship just to attain the title of Dumb
and to know that you'll eventually return to square one



however, ultimately...
you realised that the victor has only one piece of chess left...
but upon close analysis and calculation you also realise that technically its two chess pieces

moving together through the hardships till the very end...
