VESSEL

A short poem 
is not something 
anyone owns; 

it's more like 
the decorative box 
it might come in.

If you want, you can 
put something in it 
that you love— 

or perhaps 
feel anxious about 
finally being rid of—

then step back, 
maybe snap 
a quick photograph, 

just to see 
how it looks.
