SIN-o-NYMS, 6d



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

Sloth (d): inertia

Inertia—in a daily sense—
Is when you feel inert—
Don’t want to move—and feel so dense
That moving might cause painful hurt.

And so you stay right where you are—
You feel some safety, doing that.
You wish you had an avatar
To do your work—you’re lying flat.*

*or … flat lying
