Does a poem need a picture?

Does a poem need a picture?

Does a poem need a picture
a tapestry of thread
layers of a fabric
in your stead

for what came before it –
the tapestry of mind
interpret as it’s seen
or as it’s read

like a quilt – a covering
a line of stitching – all in sinc
does the poet rely on more
than merely what the pen may bring

the web of inspiration –
haiku, elegy or rhyme
does the poem need a picture –

Art –
The embroidery of time
