The work brings out precision
mostly in how it demands
the gathering of everything that’s necessary,
the right tools and their right use
and the care they need,
a sense of the materials,
their strengths and limitations,
and how to make them do what you require

And you have to attend to the whole process  –
you have to have the strength
to draw your care around it
and hold it all together.
Once you have done all that, it’s easy.
