  Go

Laurence Loeb
 

 


The game is hard it’s the world's greatest, the book says a player should be courtly, pay attention to your manner lest you perturb the thinking of your opponent or give unpleasant feeling.  Decide your move look hard look long it’s only a game. You put a black stone on the intersection of lines your opponent puts white on another. Textures of stones differ. It’s all territory. You try to enclose the other draws close. It doesn't matter. Let the totality decide. Placement of one stone affects the whole go through dimensions and everything shifts. Masters see ahead, not very far. Your hand hesitates and the minuet goes on. She reaches. Disturb the universe.
