History Seeping into the Meadow it Made

This day can’t not become that
Day that will never exist—
Then it becomes that, and you say,

Hey, here it is, this day is existing,
But it isn’t, not as that day that couldn’t
Not become, never existing.

You peruse this day’s news, read history,
Biography, memoirs. Push your thoughts
Like corkscrews into the boards.

You won’t live to see it, but that day
Will come, the stable one, since this day
Can’t not become that day that wasn't.
