       The Archer's Senses 
      With fingers of victory 
                             And 
        string pulled tight                                   The 
        arrow of sight                
        The Archer lets fly 
         
       
      With arrow aligned 
                        And 
        target found                                  The 
        arrow of sound 
        The Archer lets fly 
         
       
      In triangular shape 
              With wood in suspense                                 The 
        arrow of sense 
        The Archer lets fly 
         
       
      Focused of mind 
                       With 
        bow full bent                                  The 
        arrow of scent 
        The Archer lets fly 
         
       
      With surefooted balance 
                     No 
        tension, or haste                                The 
        arrow of taste 
        The Archer lets fly 
         
       
      With attention poised 
                                                                  And 
        mind full taut                                                                       The 
        arrow of thought                      
        The Archer lets fly
