Koryu meets Chess

Not Martial Arts but Minerva's Arts. Through a Struggle, be guided by Philosophy, Faith, Art, and Science. Like a Forest from the Olive Tree that Athena, goddess of Wisdom, offered the Greek people a long time ago.

A POET IN LUHANSK

For a moment of life, For a moment of death, A poet left already love for home.   For a moment of peace, For a moment of fight, A poet left already Lviv for Luhansk.   For a moment of smile, For a moment of sigh, A poet left already love for home.    *Because […]

POETS IN MARIUPOL

A POET IN CHERNIHIV

For a breath of a poet, a breeze comes round. ’Cause burn clay to bricks, let winds borrow books! Let burst into bloom of words clay round the Library. ’Cause burn clay to bricks, let rains borrow books! Let burst into bloom of words clay round Chernihiv.    *Because my friend sent me an email […]

A POET IN KHARKIV

A poet in Kharkiv is standing under bombs. But a poet in Kharkiv is watching over the world. Keep silent! Keep silent! Sirens warn in Kharkiv. But a poet in Kharkiv is a sign of a word.   *Because I saw the photo and read the article about “The statue of Taras Shevchenko surrounded with […]

KASPAROV’S GAMBIT

This book was published in 2015, but I believe it’s not too late to read it still, because now is the last chance […]

ARE YOU SAFE?

Are you safe? Are you safe? Anna Muzychuk, are you safe? Mariya Muzychuk, are you safe? There is no difference between Koryu & Chess, when I pray to Minerva for you and your family and your friends and your country. Are you safe? Are you safe?

BREATH
