Archery/Conjunctions

The archer of the sky has been steadying his aim for years
It's a shame...really
the way his arrow hit the ground with a soft thud

But

Maybe he was aiming for the ground that whole time
Maybe it's important that I pretended he released the arrow
Maybe the point was letting the arrow go

And

If I were the archer I would want to be my arrow
and if I were the arrow I would want you to be my bow
and I would want to be let go

Because


If I were in flight I would never want to land anywhere
much less care or know that I would eventually find a resting home
somewhere in the soft ground
