Poem -

All in!

Down to the wire
Down to the last dregs
Reaching the 11th hour
Living on the edge
of a knife
Eking out a living;
off the sweat of an oil rag;
on a wing and a prayer
Living dangerously
Throwing golden eggs
into the one basket or
hedging your bets,
either way
you've got nothing to lose
You're in freefall
Been here many times before
You feel the pinch
but never poor
Cause you know what you came here for
And that
after this death,
there's always more!
