Choose then express in Haiku.
Don't try Superko!

Black then White places
On empty intersections.
Must have liberty!

If last liberty
Taken remove stone from board,
It has been captured.

When the board now looks
like anytime before this,
your move was not right.

Three step Chinese count:
He puts stones in piles, counts them,
Tells you that you lost.

Go rules in Haiku?
Black plays first; White plays second...
Must write big footnote.

Opponent too strong?
You can start with extra stones.
No doubt they will die...

If surrounded, die.
don’t repeat the shape last seen.
Two eyes are divine.

More complete variation below, but I prefer the version above:
---
If surrounded, die.
don’t repeat the shape last seen.
Territory wins.

Listen to your stones, then play.
They are mute today.

Play the move you want to play!
Lose now, win later?

Cold stone on the vital point
Nowhere a second eye
Die.

In the beginning was GoGod.
And GoGod created the universe.
And the universe was an infinite two-dimensional grid.
GoGod regarded the universe and said: "It is good."
And GoGod created two colours - black and white.
GoGod regarded his creation and said: "Everything is equal and it is good."
And he spoke: "Look - this is the universe. Go and share life in peace."
And GoGod knew that all was good.

and then he said: "well, black
does have a slight advantage by going first, maybe it would be better to give white 4.5 points komi."
