Lines Based on Synonyms for the
Seven Deadly Sins
SEVEN DEADLY SINS: envy, gluttony,
greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath
Greed (i):
rapaciousness
Rapaciousness—now
there’s a word
To raise a
dire alarm,
For few
things in this life of ours
Can cause a
greater harm.
I picture
someone—mad, insane—
Who drools
with so much greed
That every
single thing in life
Surrenders
to this creed.
And such a
person, so I think,
Will soon be
overthrown—
By friends,
by life, by circumstance—
And then
will die alone.
