Deadly Sin #7

Envy, as defined by the poets dictionary.

Definition:

Some wounds so deeply seated

As to be enthroned

Waving scepter giving orders

From kingdom long outgrown.

Other definitions include: Wanting the neighbours grass for it is greener than your own, forgetting that grass will only ever be green when it is watered.

Contempt for what you have, hunger for what you don’t.

Green eyes making inventory on things not belonging to them.

A condition known to make content people steal.

Quicksand effect, rapidly turning to nothing what it has and lying in wait to lay its treacherous grip on whoever may come it’s way.

Antonyms include: Generosity, non materialistic, content, selfless, brown eyed.

Envy only seeks to cheat and steal to build itself up in it’s own mind. Imagine Pride with an inferiority complex that also has kleptomaniac tendencies.

Okay everybody just for your information I do intend to balance this list out with a similar one about the fruits of the spirit.

Deadly Sin #3

Pride, as defined by the poets dictionary.

Definition: Taxidermy of the soul, taking what is dead and setting it up as a trophy to be admired above all other living things.

Other definitions include: To paint a thick coat of most beautiful paint over what is clearly rotten wood, then boasting about your masterpiece.

Preferring night lights to star light, simply because they do what you tell them to.

To be so puffed up with air, you actually believe you’re strong until somebody comes along and pops you.

To take every offense so personally as though all ill intent was always aimed at you.

To have an inability to gaze into any surface not a mirror.

Antonyms include: Humility, empathy, caring for others, generosity.

Pride only seeks to convince itself it dwells above that which is common, deserving more while earning less. Such a heart can never know a higher power, such a heart can never admit need.

Deadly Sin #2

Wrath, as defined by the poets dictionary.

Definition: What happens when mortals confuse themselves as Gods and allow themselves rage undiluted by servitude to a sovereign.

Other definitions include: Red pumping so violently that it lashes out with unkind words and unkind hands.

Tempestuous resolve to cause suffering and destruction.

Antonyms include: Kindness, Peace, Justice, righteous indignation.

Wrath only seeks to tip the scales and in that plunging down land with heavy fists on whatever it may.

Deadly Sin #1

Lust: To be enamoured with rust.

The way that the seasons stand

Upon the shoulders of those

That came before.

In the end always toppling into winter,

As anything found in death

Must to death return.
