The Breath Between Pearls

An opened wooden chest holds a pearl strand, a fitam nose-clip and a coiled dive rope, lit by one low candle. Every pearl in it cost a single held breath at the bottom of the Gulf; here wealth is counted in breaths, not coins. The still life of a vanished economy, and of the men who paid for it in air.
