Touch Me

Touch Me

Touch me.
For I am death.
Touch me.
I am lethal.
Touch me.
I am doom.
Touch me.
I am cursed.
Touch me.
I am poison.
Touch me.
I'll get under your skin.
Touch me.
I'll stop your heart.
Touch me.
I am a weapon.
Touch me.
Believe me or not.
Touch me.
Take a chance.
Touch me.
Risk a gamble.
Touch me.
Roll the dice.
Touch me.
You will never win.
Touch me.
You will fatally lose.
Touch me.
See if I'm kidding.
Touch me.
I speak the truth.
Touch me.
I never lie.
Touch me.
Don't be shy.
Touch me.
I dare you.
Touch me.
I double dare you.
Touch me.
Go ahead.
Touch me.
The slightest touch...
TOUCH ME!

Glad to hear it and thanks Jim and that's the spirit and hold on to it, grasp it tightly even.
Try never to let go.
For in the words of the late Dylan Thomas...Β 
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wise words for one and all.
Thanks again and God willing back late tomorrow night for your good self and other members also.
It is late, late, here in Cardiff and duty calls for tomorrow.
And Mr Sandman and The Land Of Nod both calleth me.
And fingers crossed/touch wood for a less demanding day.
Take care Jim and simply enjoy life and poetry and the good both have to offer.

Hi LornaΒ  just caught your comment and glad you enjoyed reading this and a little dark I know.
And God forgive me, just enjoy writing them.
Something to make one's heart beat that little faster.
And well spotted for that's the between the lines gist of it.
The manipulation and goading.
Take care and I wish you well and not forgetting thank you.

Tina thank you for your wonderful comment.
And you are on the money.... it's beneficial for your health and longevity not to.
And when's your next coming book out?...

My immediate gut reaction was to write something like 'how touching was that eh' .. but thought better of it .. Instead, I would like to emphasise the point that once started, I felt compelled to continue, write through to the end .. and all the time, in my head at least, I was trying to guess just how many touch me's there might be .. All in all, a little bit scary and certainly lived up to and more than did justice to those hash tags you added .................................... Neville :)
