it is not empty
clay, chips and cracks together
traces of river

My response to Carpe Diem #1307 The Vessel
Today’s quatrain from the Rubaiyat is the sequel to the previous one:
I think the Vessel, that with fugitive
Articulation answered, once did live,
And merry-make; and the cold Lip I kiss’d
How many Kisses might it take – and give !

Good one, Kim. Clay vessels, not only the antique ones, are a source of fascination as to their previous life.
