try to solve this one

watching the wind
fan my fire higher
almost grabbed a newer
book wanted to start
a new chapter
but somehow
talked myself into
finishing this one
stay focused and finish
what has motivated
all along keep on writing
no matter how funny
they look at me
it only motivates me to put
more words down like
my life is a crossword puzzle
who is going to try
to solve this one
without a hidden word or phrase
done that a time or two
and probably again
not here streaming the thoughts
live out in the backyard
late night or what I consider
late night after eight
when you keep the hours kept
started the fire with a paper bag
and a spark burst into
another late night blaze
into another current year...
