Splitting Ice
Kay Ryan

Like standing¹
on splitting（极快的，爆裂似的） ice
one foot on one
one on the
other piece.
Distressed²（痛苦的） like
the family of man
at the divorce
of the plates:
some cast into
a suddenly new
world as though
having sinned;
those kept behind
trapped and
bereft³（丧失的） . But in
a person, one
foot will lift
and the split
resolve. So
why do the
self-saved
feel half left?
