Analysis of my arrow
Arrow high arrow low
Lets see how far it will go
running through the air don't despair
it will not hurt you
We found a bow and we will shoot
But much we have learned not to harm
But only if you are small
We aren't bad and not sad
We hurt the small minded
Thus we have an arrow we can use
