Best All Out Poems

I send out this 
     work 
to all of you 
     out 
     there 
     in 
     the shadows 
A light will come

Brother, you been stacking it on
stick by stick, building me a fire.
Child by child, taught to build a pyre--
keep us warm, hide from the cold.
	
Stares of hell that face your soul
huff by huff, puff by puff
shutting down the wants for food,
shutting down the wants for...

Some con men blew smoke
Trusting it was adequate 
Vulnerable and uncertain
We gambled from the same stack
For the beauty of your game  

Men with no tells flat line their hearts
For a better chance in spades
Calling our bluffs, upping the ante 
Some will fold, others will...

I’m all out for In, Boys, I’m all out for In
I’ll not consign dear Europe to the bonfire or the bin
We’ve fought too many flippin’ wars to call this thing a day
And isn’t such division just a little bit passé?
We’re a tiny little island, all...

Can’t hold this love in
To do that is sin
Can’t keep it inside
There’s no place for pride
Cause all that I see
Is you here with me
Whatever it takes
I’ll win at these stakes
So, here’s what I’ll do
I’ll be all out for you

Chorus
All out for you
It’s all I can...

Won't you untie me,my arms are aching,
your shelter is failing,chisel in my heart of stone

I won't be here tomorrow,there's no lies left to borrow
leave me empty and hollow,..let me grow

Won't you untie me , stop trying to fight me,
your promise is binding,chisel in my heart...

Just a man
Is all I am
Do what I can
Its not a sham
I am no more
You are no less
An even score
A tie I guess
I have loved very easy
And I have hated hard
I did till I’m dizzy
Though never been barred
A love hate relationship
Is love to hate each-other
The...

I'M ALL OUT OF DREAMS
OBEDIENCE TAKES OVER
YOU ARE THE GENERAL
I AM THE SOLDIER

I'M ALL OUT OF PATIENCE 
I LOOK THROUGHT THE WINDOW
YOU SET THE BAR DOWN 
I'M STUCK IN THIS LIMBO

I'M ALL OUT OF STRENGTH
I'M WEAK AND I'M QUESY
YOU PUSH ON MY CHEST 
GRIP TIGHT...

typeitallout,doesn'tthatseemnice?
would
it be like
a mantra
giving each thought
its own
universe-in-verse?
or,
inversely,
trapping thought
so pure
so muse
-ical
into
some stilted
pattern
a vice
of semi-pleasing 
expression-expressing-expression
that's never quite what
it seems?

The cow wanted lamb on a dish and soon
To comply would put her over the moon
They said sorry ma'am
Mary had all the  lamb
And the dish just took off with the spoon!...

My illness sometimes pushes me, I decide to push it back

My illness fails to retaliate because I go on an all out attack

My mission is pure and simple, I pride myself on dedication

Fighting back requires 95 percent, the other 5 percent is my medication

I've worked...

This wall seems so high
And it goes on forever.
Can’t get over or, by
Hook or by crook,
Around it.

My fevered forehead,
Pressed to the cool surface,
Can almost feel the dead
Hopes and dreams I left
On the other side.

This life seems so long
And it goes on forever.
Either weak or strong,
It...

Whoever invented the Kiss
I'd like to shake their hand
But I won't
 
Because I'm shortsighted and always miss
It wouldn't be such a problem
If I had Mick Jaggers's lips
But the boss
My Mrs doesn't like it
And slaps me on the wrist

She's packed her bags to leave
But In tried...

It's all inside heating up steam
hell-bent anger wanting to explode
this is all so wrong takes one over
one press just like any old download

What causes this human disruption?
for it to reveal itself like a bomb
gaining victory's hope looks gone
so frustrating makes one storm

Overall the years speaking...
