Vessel

Empty and cracked

the ambrosia is long gone now

leaked through the fresh broken borders

I do not overflow

Like I should.

I do not hold

The boundless light

In my palms

Instead it soaks the soil.

Meant to be shone through

as the light danced a lithe ballet

But it is empty and cracked.

Bereft for the purpose that broke it.
