Vessels
There sat 2 vessels
Two jars of clay
One holds a torch
One a luminous snake
One sits on earth
One a pillar of stone
One sits in a cave
A pyre of dry bones
There are two vessels
Both are possessed
One is conditioned
The other oppressed
One plain with water
Thus sealed yet clean
One’s art hypnotizes
Adder’s night dreams
