The craftsman.

The craftsman:

Trained and skilled in his craft.
He is meticulous in each facet of his work.
So much care and devotion,
always precise and pain staking.

Taking his time with each single task,
finishing only when he has reached perfection.
Always his works has such pin point accuracy,
never will he gloss over any single stage.

Careful review of every single step taken,
ensuring no mistakes or faults
made along the way.
So much effort put in each day.

He has such love and devotion,
not just a job or just a vocation.
For this is his true calling,
a purist in the ultimate extreme.

Always pernickety, never anything trivial,
some would call this blind obsession.
Others would call this professionalism.
Those who appreciate his art will hold it in the highest degree.
