...



archery is to pedagogy
what computers are to haiku





if one thinks too hard
about hitting the target
one inevitably misses
but as soon as one lets go
of meeting the mark
bullseye!

without the bow and arrow
when all the paraphenalia disappears
and when practice becomes a way of becoming
one masters the enemy within, ordinance
and the straight line
of one`s intent



tap tap tap the sound

of hail hatching the window -

a desktop haiku

Yes. The letting go empowers the arrow and becoming becomes a way of being.

On the lake a man
with two arms and one oar rows about
in circles
