Lines Based on Synonyms for the
Seven Deadly Sins
SEVEN DEADLY SINS: envy, gluttony,
greed or avarice, lust, pride, sloth, and wrath
Pride (i):
self-glory
He soaked
himself, from head to toe—
Self-glory
was the liquid, Yo.
He thought
its glitter would result
In
admiration—we’d exult
And shower
him with endless praise
Throughout
his endless string of days.
But …
Self-glory
is like gasoline:
When it
ignites, you leave the scene—
A piece of
charcoal, so well used.
You stand
there, singed, and so confused.
