Empty Shell

Where is the poem, the one I culdn't feel? Escaped, like a flock of gulls when all that's left is shells. The mussels gone or rotted by heavy salty air; exposed like a heart to a fisherman who never eats his catch but hasn't the sense to toss it in the water. I am a shell, with nothing succulent to share.
