I have a small clean empty space
I carry around with me
A thimble a saucer
A shell a hollow egg
Between my flesh and
Bony sternum it is
Waiting; holding
Breath for some liquid
Viscous thing
Some time, a moment
A sweet heaviness to come
And fill it
Change its timber
When the wind blows
Over its round open mouth
