Your passion is something I adore

but when your tongue gets to lashing

I’m not sure how much I will endure

fire and ice

tears and flying spittle

breathe honey breathe

allow your leaping heart to settle

those thoughts you keep running

along a knife’s double bevel

will split us quick and clean

without a hint of struggle
