Think of it as Art

Square off the end –
Plane it flat and sleek –
No swerve or bend –
Nothing soft or weak –

Ninety degrees –
Make the angle sharp –
Tension – not ease –
Bugle – not a harp –

Straight as a sword –
Motionless as rock –
Let the reward
Be the key and lock

You now employ:
Think of it as art –
Try to enjoy
Closing up the heart.
