A canopic jar. A vessel for my innards. My jars are made from alabaster. There are four. The baboon-headed jar will hold my lungs. Mine are working quite well now. The jackal-headed jar will hold my stomach. At last check that was fine. The boring human-headed jar will hold my liver. I think I may have an issue with that. I could really use the Falcon-headed jar. This battle I was in has left my intestines all over the place. Alas, I don’t think I’ll get a chance to use any of my lovely, alabaster jars. The vultures will get to things before the jars will.
Vessel

Wow. Such visceral writing and such a nonchalant tone. Loved it.

Thanks! I had just the word ‘vessel’ and this is what I ended with.
