Inadequate Inaccuracy

inadequate inaccuracy
never hit the mark 
no matter practice 
no matter efforts made
just a hair off the goal line 
just out of range of the target 
never able to get a clear shot 
something always got in the way 
of the vantage point from which 
the target should have been visible

Inaccuracy is always inadequate so the word inadequate is not necessary here. Try to be concise when writing poetry like this. The rest of the poem is not bad and works to some levels. Thanks for it! Luis Estable
