Target of Perfection
Date : Wednesday, April 4
Pull the bow back
Feel the strain?
The pressure.
Don’t release.
Don’t let go.
Ready? Aim?
Don’t shoot yet.
You’ll miss.
You always miss
Because you always
Release too soon
You’re eager.
Feel the pressure.
Savor it.
Bathe in it.
Dance in it.
Now aim again.
Focus.
Keep your eyes
On the prize.
Remember what
The prize is.
Or do you not know?
It’s a problem
If you don’t remember.
You need to concentrate.
Start over.
Pull the bow back.
Find the pressure.
Notice the strain.
Now Aim –
For once, focus!
Don’t be eager.
Keep your focus.
Enjoy the pressure.
Ready? Aim?
Release.
Now find the target.
Find the arrow.
See if you
Hit your mark.
Cant find the arrow?
Did you not remember
What your target was?
Oh, you’re hopeless.
You’ll never be perfect.
