The Land Mines of Love

Stroll through the land mines of love Steer clear of a vial of perfume Swerve 'round a leopard-skin thong Blush at the ruby two-lip blooms Stroll through the land mines of lust Remove all your clothes if you must Your pulse races, palms sweat to death Lie down in these pastures ~ Hold onto your breath

Next stanza, which I had to leave out, the leopard took those spots off the thong -- and that teeny-tiny thong was 'barely' visible. lol. Thanks, Tom
