SIN-0-NYMS, 2c



Lines Based on Synonyms for the Seven Deadly Sins
SEVEN DEADLY SINS: envy, gluttony, greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath


Gluttony (c): overindulgence

Yes, my overindulgence has had a great price—
And, for one thing, I’m no longer fit.
Yes, instead I just nap, then I find stuff to eat—
And my pants just this morning, well, split.

But I can’t seem to help it—this bingeing on food.
I just see a sweet treat and must eat.
But perhaps, down the road, with my sanity back,
I’ll return to fresh fruit and whole wheat!?
