SIN-o-NYMS, 6m



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

Sloth (m): dallying

Oh, dallying can be some fun—
Especially if you’re the one
Who’s dallying the whole day through.
But not so fun for others, true?

See, this is mankind’s basic law
(Though I’ll admit it has a flaw):
I think it’s fine when it is I—
But don’t you do it! Lazy guy!

So, go ahead and dally some—
But when your hour is finally come,
Expect me there, beside your bed,
To row you to the Land of Dead.
