Theatre
A backcloth representing the sky; = “skycloth”.

During early rehearsals, the only scenery on stage was the skydrop.
After the triangle rhyme in the preceding post, the idea stuck with me, effectively forcing me to continue getting in rhyming shape!

=====
What makes you hesitate
To attempt something great?
Could it be that you fear
That others just might hate?
The things which you create
Whether done early or late
Know, let’s be very clear.
Satisfy yourself. Can you relate?
=====
The rhymes sometimes come first
Because for their sounds I do thirst
And then the lines come in a burst
Though the results could come out worst.
If others just show contempt,
Still, don’t delay the attempt.
From their negation be exempt.
You don’t need their consent.
