Let's Rhyme

Devouring wings, my drip is dramatic,
Flames ignite tongue, buds sting acrobatic.
Capsaicin conga line, thrusts are erratic,
Spicy-raised roof, heat hitting the attic.  

A gourmand adventure, once mild aromatic,
Infernos erupting, eyes leaking emphatic.
Scoville scale rising, its rays autocratic,
Mouth fully ablaze, sensations hematic.

"Why eat this?" You ask question Socratic,
For flame-kissed climax, pursuit is dogmatic.
Chasing the burn, with choice democratic,
Hot-fiery yearn, a finale ecstatic.
