White porcelain on grey cobblestone Chipped rim finds paths the lost have known Winter wind cuts through wool and wire Mug hunts a sip of vanished fire No passenger waits at this address Just ceramic grit and cold duress Steam on stone, steam on stone Searching where the heat has gone Steam on stone, steam on stone Warmth once lived in clay alone Driver watches, engine hums Mug remembers where it comes from Kiln-baked memory holds the shape Of coffee dark and morning grape Alley walls lean close and tight Kissing frost on ceramic white Handle cold as taxi rail Seeking steam's invisible trail Steam on stone, steam on stone Searching where the heat has gone Steam on stone, steam on stone Warmth once lived in clay alone Driver watches, engine hums Mug remembers where it comes from Three a.m. and dispatch sleeps Radio static, promises it keeps Mug pauses by a steam vent grate Inhales the breath of city's fate Taxi clock ticks slow and deep While clay performs its silent creep Steam on stone, steam on stone Searching where the heat has gone Steam on stone, steam on stone Warmth once lived in clay alone Driver watches, engine hums Mug remembers where it comes from Glaze catches sodium glow Orange wash on curves below Every chip tells fare and tip Lip marks from a thousand sip Meter runs but wheels stay still Night shift bends to mug's strong will Fifty years I've drove these streets Seen concrete crack in winter heats Never watched a cup crawl home Through frozen dark and sodium chrome But clay holds on to what it knew Heat outlives the brew it knew Dawn breaks pale on windshield glass Mug finds a vent at long last Steam rises, clay drinks deep Warmth wakes what frost put asleep Flag drops green, I pull away Ceramic lives another day Steam on stone, steam on stone Found the place the heat calls home Steam on stone, steam on stone Warmth returns to clay alone Driver watches, engine hums Mug remembers where it comes from Steam on stone, steam on stone Heat outlives the brew it knew Meter clicks, the morning fare Steam rises on the copper ware
