7 Deadly Sins

7 Deadly Sins

A Poem by Lunar Lightning

We all know someone with everything

Envy

Someone we wish we could be

 

We all enjoy bragging and showing off

Pride

The secret love for ourselves, less secret then we'd like

 

We all enjoy watching a sinful act of pleasure

Lust

Be it sex or something only slightly less

 

We all crave more

Greed

Just a taste has us needing it

 

We all have breaking points

Anger

Some of us more often than others

 

We all have days when all we want to do is sleep

Sloth

Or perhaps it is more like years

 

We all see that perfect arangement of sweets

Gluttony

They call your name like a seductress

 

How deadly these simple sins

Clawing at us like subconcious beings

Ready and willing for us to take advantage
