Lickety Split

Lucky at the race of wit
Implicit you must admit
Clicking heels no time to sit
Kick into high gear to split
Energized quite opposite
Teasing like a hypocrite
Yelling at shadows moonlit

Spry vocals you will emit
Pirouettes so exquisite
Linger not without permit
Impulsive to infinite
Twinkle toes lickety split
