Archery
Clout on target
Eye you can't forget
A dot like a tv set
No winking eye you let
Aiming high or low
Stretched or loose you throw
Arrows you release or blow
Prize you do not show.
Archer you know in you
With bow and arrow of you
Archery is your life in a game
Name in flame you lit without shame.

Foreign Hitherto
Pushing cascades crest bastion, stomach lost
Largesse spread wafts orange blossom bridal
Bestows clouds let go to marshmallow moss
Fearless flight crinoline crash vertical
In gospel gothic deep chasm, drunk mink swims
Stirring fate, bleeding tea leaves bewilder

Pit Love
Line up the front post
Cheek pressed to the stock
Call me Paparazzo
I'm taking the shot
And I don't miss
I've been enamoured with the way that you talk
Between you and me
I've been incendiary
Blowing up hot
You've been a tracer round,
Splitting dark, and shooting me down
Line up the front post
Cheek pressed to the stock
Call you Saxton Hope
Loosing every arrow I

Archery
Two friends go camping
In the wilderness
They bring a target board
With bows and arrows
The target is up
They all get ready
One at a time wait
For each of their turns
For a perfect aim
One friend aimed- then let go
The arrow did not go far
Only a short distence
The other friend tried
The best he could
Only he got bruised
When the arrow

Villanelle For the Death of Archery
There are far too many things that you don't know
The revelry and squalor tucked away
It's time to pull the curtain on my show
A million little boxes in a row
To bury or to swallow was the game
There are far too many things that you don't know
Choked it down the prickles of my throat
Then replaced my shovel

The Bow Maid's Travail/ the Archery Lesson
The archers’ line was straddled,
By many a shapely calf.
The Marshall called the nocking,
And winked at the pretty lass.
The Maiden drew the bowstring back,
To her ruddy cheek,
As she fired her fledgling flights;
They heard the fair Maid "Eek!"
Chorus
"Sing Hey Ho, best beware!
Hey Ho have a care,
If ye've any pretty parts,
Ye'll keep them out of there!"
The bowman smiled
