SIN-o-NYMS, 7b



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

Wrath (b): angriness*

Her angriness was quite a trait
And ruined almost every date—
Still time to save her? Or too late?

A man with temper came along—
He didn’t use some sweets or song—
But acted somewhat like King Kong.

They fell in love—it took a while—
But once they did? Oh, many a smile!
Their lives went on in calmer style.

*based, of course, on The Taming of the Shrew.
