The Still

So sip your lemonade and touch the straw
around its asymmetrical crack,
perfect falling in-between ice's flaw:

That the sun floats down the amber and black,
like steel-blue trains would if they came up off and lost the track,
but I swear the setting would stop until
you could sip in the quiet and the still
watching sunsets and ice thaw
