Seven years ago two lucky quotes start CMVIII, Whitman's on square games. http://classiclit.about.com/library/bl-etexts/wwhitman/bl-ww-chanting.htm And Ezra Pound's Monopoly and Chess conflated in one breath. ''Beyond your bonds and borders'' is Poundean metaphor for leaving indefinitely inadequate 64 squares ''variantly'' and multiply. For literary trivia, CMIX's ''drinking mead from the skull-cup and beating the serpent-skin drum'' is Whitman also. The 7 ladies match the 7 pieces because: Merope(P) is known to have married Sisyphus, a mortal, having her doppelganger. Sterope(N): wife of Oenomaus mother of Ares; Pegasus. Taygete(K): mother of Lakedaimon ancestor of Kings of Sparta. Alcyone(Q) Archer, Artemis. Maia(B): she is called anciently Gaia Maia, signalling third millennial religions to subvert antiquated fairy tales that now motivate people inappropriately. Calaeno(R): daughter of Atlas. Electra(F) is obviously Falcon herself called Atlantis by Ovid. The ending ''Code four base-pairs becoiled and sublimate/ Cook slowly for a billion years and wait'' is concise algorithm in basic chemistry for the phenomena of information arranging energy/matter, observed life being one of the resultants.
