Stich

The stitching across the genre
as the thematic with staff in hand
in golden letters reads all is drama
thus the arts of affection in demand
a religious rhapsody of some truthful kind
it could be a tree in the hand of worthless twig
with branching movement the vine entwined
sing with a pen an invent meaning you must dig
chasing songs with your stretching mind unlined
rocking your own boat in time only begs
the cryptics or critics to mount the para
to sew something of worth despite the dregs
of communal life and death within its era
only the stitch remains urging the love of
and embroidery just wants to be seen
Note- The performance of epic poetry was called in classical Greek rhapsodia (?a??d?a), and its performer rhapsodos. "rhapsode" is derived from rhapsoidein (?a??de??), meaning "to sew [songs] together
