Life of Old Threads In a Jacquard- Infinite Infinitian Contest

Jails we weave in hues of red rust All our yarns are strong and just Croons of threads sing on a Quilt, "A song of trust!" Urged the wefts,'we Are like Silk, Roped for dust! 8th October 2015 Jacquard: a fabric made on a loom fitted with a jacquard, with an intricate variegated pattern Weft: In weaving, the weft is the term for the thread or yarn which is drawn through the warp yarns to create cloth. Warp is the lengthwise or longitudinal thread in a roll, while weft is the transverse thread.

i loved this one from the first time i read it; it's very original, with terrific rhythm and rhyme considering the form, truly reads like a little song or jingle, and the last four lines are particularly good - congrats on your 1st place in my contest!
