countdown to the current year

last day/night
one month straight
everyday another thought
or the continuation of
one from yesterday
the day before
and the day before that
last night/day
wish I could force
myself to the coast
for a sunrise
can’t guarantee
I will want to wake
before the year’s
first light
last few hours
before it becomes
a new day/year
by the calendar
that we all go by
makes enough sense
not to question
too much more than normal
last few minutes
hoping the fire
will make it until midnight...
