SIN-o-NYMS, 6o



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

Sloth (o): loafing

I hate your loafing—hate your face.
You’re nothing but a great disgrace.

I wish you’d get some drive somehow.
(I’m looking in the mirror now.)

Yes, I’m the one who’s such a slug—
Who takes naps here, upon the rug—

Who, when there’s work, has learned to hide—
And can defend it—justified!
