Replying to a comment on:

Glassblowers (Free verse) by Christof

I am just a tourist. I gawp as men behind a grille, Paid to spend their lungs in glass, Blow globes and bowls and jugs And swans, each one the cask Of someone's breathing. In the shop I cradle in my hands a life. All breakages must be paid for And I can't afford the price.

I nearly took a fork to my eye after I read "Paid to spend their lungs in glass".
