The Damned by ~Rojozorra:iconRojozorra:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open


Greed
Lust
Gluttony
Envy
Sloth
Wrath
Pride
What terrible connotations they hold
These sins of the world
Greed; isn't that simply, Capitalism?
Lust; oh how many of us have mistaken
Lust for Love
Or do we call it Love to avoid
Sinning
Gluttony; is this the obese or is this
Is gluttony the wealthiest of us all?
Envy; don't we all wish we had something
Something that another possesses?
Sloth; inviting, so inviting
In the world of today where everything is so
So rushed
We have hardly time for spiritual work but it's done, isn't it?
Rush
Rush
Hurry
Faster!
Wouldn't it be nice to stop and avoid it all
At least
For a little while?
Wrath oh what a firey
Distruction
Isn't it just delicious?
It feels so perfect to fly into such
A Passion and let them all know
Know what you really feel and want
Forcefully?
Vanity; in the world of plastic surgery,
Eating Disorders,
And Dieting,
What more can I say?
You know if you aren't Pretty enough
They'll all shun you
The Seven Deadly Sins
All over you find them
Residing in Humanity
So then
Does that mean we are a doomed
Species
Oh wait, we aren't Animals, are we?
We are People, Humans
We are Better than Animals, aren't we?
These Sins were written
So much is seen that Are
These Sins
Then I guess
We were all doomed from the
Start

Author's Comments

Before you go anywhere, [link] , a little series I went back and looked at just now it's really lovely.

I was talking to my lover and well I just got to talking. I'll put the conversation in my scraps for those of you who don't get offended easily feel free to look, but those of you who's religion is a touchy subject or really just get touchy in general please don't read. And please note it is long and not all of it pertains to exactly this piece and yet, it very much connects. For those of you interested here: [link]

Those who are interested but offended by bluntness be wary I take no responsibility for any offense that is taken it is entirely on you.

Well, yeah. We're all trapped in them, some way or other.

A birthday is just a day, you say.
But it's a special day.
It's the day you first changed the world.

Last night I found myself on the edge of hell.

This morning I found my bed large and empty.

The sunshine means nothing when you wake

To no one beside you.

Now I find myself down the rabbit hole.

If you need me follow the White Rabbit.
