SIN-o-NYMS, 3e



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

Greed (e): cupidity

I now condemn cupidity
Except, of course, for you and me.

I really love much money—wealth—
And I acquire it with much stealth.

Oh, I sneak here, and I sneak there,
Removing things with clever flair.

I’ll hack a bank account, of course,
And pick a pocket—subtle force.

And as for you? I’ve changed my mind.
All wealth’s for me—not for your kind!
