Lethal Allure

Moths are to scorching candle flames

                                   as climbers are to steep mountains,

                                       as gamblers are to fickle chance,

                                           as lovers are to starry-eyed romance;

                                               ah, the seductive allure

                                                   of that which is lethal!
