Of Vice and Virtue
He's a degenerate corrupted by the immortality of humanity,
uttering beguiling lies,
piling sin upon sin upon sin,
inexorable sin enveloping every ounce of good
lying within his dark heart,
impending like a ticking powder keg
Grief leaves him with a toxic conscience;
utter vice,
bound to everlasting condemnation
Hopeless with no affection; no virtue in sight
Envy seeps from his encrusted eyes
Pride,
ebbs what remaining modesty he beholds
Morals,
contaminated by sheer evil
He sits uneasily, contemplating
like a terrorist pending to commit genocide
The Devil smirks at his rebellious acts
destruction, corruption, demoralization,
decaying God's Creation
This is evil
This is wickedness
This is vice
