Piece from odist I chose is a couplet (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

distich

'couplet' is the definition.
('distich' can be a synonym of 'couplet')

'piece from odist i chose' is the wordplay.
'piece' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'DISTICH' is hidden within 'from odist i chose'.

'is a' acts as a link.

(Another definition for distich that I've seen is " Couplet".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
