Dancing With Caution

Aromatically whisking towards leopards bane
Waltzing, being careful to avoid the touch
Hither here step, toe, heel, a scrumptious pain
To tango with the devil's helmet, vomit, double Dutch

A vermilion distillment, a sleepy smile
A foxtrot coalescing with foul swoons
I cannot touch these, a reaction volatile
The rise up, seen once in a blue moon

So it's a rise down, a paddle turn
I can't wait to spend eternity in an urn
These violent delights have violent ends
Caution to the wind, carefully descends

Landing softly, a bed of poison
Swallowing, ever softly
