Archer's Eye

There is no skill to be mastered.
 Yet when I draw a bow
 I am mastering a skill.
 This skill is not drawing a bow;
 it is aligning the eye with the target.

The tiger is not mastering the stripes;
 It is mastering that which wears them.
 The deer is not mastering the sprint;

It is mastering that which powers its run.

Mastering any skill
 Is mastering the one skill;
 The one skill worth perfecting.
