String taut Bowed for arched Parabolic parable Aims not at But above, to allow For gravitational drops In expectations As distance between And strength of pull Combine to dictate The accuracy of Previous estimations Free flight Always controlled By actions and planning Of archer, Still effected by wind As words uttered Find marks Left behind By other Arrows |

This one's dense with symbolism and thought. I read it about four times and still get conflicting interpretations -- a good mental exercise to think about the applications of this one, Ron. -MVS "When you tell the Truth, you never have to remember what you just said." |
