levity kiss

rules fall before, falling after, then after. what once was a frivolous kiss amidst the laughter. you commit-or you sin, singed with lipstick afire. one kiss marks the end. or you begin as a liar.

I'm glad you explained that. But why not just let the first line be: Leviticus, levity kiss.

"singed with lipstick" is good.

I get the "rules"-Leviticus intent, I guess (Leviticus is the book that deals w/ rules and ritual, right?), but the connection seems flimsy.
