Description:
DRUG CHESS
opponents must each be on different drugs
alcohol does not count
athletes must provide own drugs
(take them before you arrive)
note: the brooklyn winter fake olympix
is in fact pro performance enhancement
and therefore has no drug policy to speak of
except to say that it is neither our resposibility
nor our business what you do to yourself

DRUG CHESS IN REVIEW
-----
match #1
speed versus marijuana
someone in the bar stole a white pawn
before the game could even start
a strange hostility
(we suspect the billiards people)
but pawns are easily replaced
both opponents arrived exactly on time
white goes first
always
which is indicative, maybe
of something or other
and prompted the question
which came first:
chess or colonialism?
a very balanced match, though
both drugs known for their extreme sense of focus
yet also (and rather directly correlated)
their myopia
which led to several unforced errors
on both sides
still
three long smart games
slow to draw blood
but dramatic
replete with rampaging queens
animal sacrifices
and a king who nearly crossed the board
which seemed like it should mean something
the walk-away?
as with anything
try to be three moves ahead
and you're not allowed to put yourself into check
winner / in 2 out of 3 / marijuana
game 1 : mj
game 2 : speed
