SIN-o-NYMS, 7o

Lines Based on Synonyms for the Seven Deadly Sins

SEVEN DEADLY SINS: envy, gluttony, greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath

Wrath (o): wrathfulness

I’ve heard that wrathfulness is fun

To watch explode in anyone.

Of course, that only could be true

If anger were not aimed at you—

For if it were? A different tale

Of words that hit like pounding hail,

Of fists that land upon your beach—

Of help that lies beyond your reach—

Of sadness, pain, and 911.

Still sound as if it’s lots of fun?
