Even a touch is out of the question

The Sunday Whirl's 11 of 12 given words:
cross dream kiss touch bell enough 
jump run threat mist scarlet 

If it should cross your mind
To dream of showing your passion
It is not a kiss so kind
Even a touch is out of the question

It should ring a bell remember?
Once was enough strife
You may have to jump like before
To run for it for dear life

This is no threat
The mist may offer a cover
But you may turn scarlet
For blood will be all over

So beat it while you still can
For do not count me as a friend

Note: This may appear gory but Hank 
meant it to be a humor write. Chuckles!

  16. Beat it to a bloody pulp! Yeah, I got the humor. Besides, pet a cat who doesn't want to be touched and you'll be the bloody one.
