A Lick No More

I have pondered over these words for a couple of days. My inclination is that they are three separate statements and are not linked.

I saw puppies in the first, licking hands and knowing that if it was me I would be smitten. A slave to its love.

I view this as a take on temptation. We can give in so easy but ultimately we are free to choose.
