IT IS AND WAS

I found it on the driveway
of my house
on the first day of winter
December 21, 2009
And that was it.
(I mean that was it.)
Because it was just sitting there.
And it was printed on a small, square
piece of paper.
Just it.
That was it.
Is was really it.
Was it
is
Because it was found on the ground?I found is
And it was
is and wasn't was,
but was is.
And now I am here
reading about its being;
that is, about its being
is and not was.
It is strange,
And is
Was even stranger;
But it still was is.
It is and was.
