“Coincidences undeniably imply meaning.
I am rereading Hart Crane.
I notice the date
On which he stepped off that boat
Was April 26.
Tomorrow is April 26.
The year of his suicide was 1932.
I was four.
I am now fifty-one.
One undeniable implication in this case then
Is that the year, today,
Is 1979.
Afterward, Crane’s mother scrubbed floors.
Eventually, I may or may not
Jump overboard.
Are there questions?”
― Collected Poems
