"...Till thegossamer thread you fling, catch somewhere, O my Soul."

~ Walt Whitman, from A Noiseless, Patient Spider

A piece of beautifulmusic or work of art is like a delicate yet strong gossamer thread. 

 Multiple strands woven together create abeautiful labyrinth on which souls might "catch" if only for a shorttime.
