Notes About The Poem

On Sloth

As a door is tied to its hinge The lazy are tied to their lounge When the diligent will prosper Sure, the lazy ones will suffer

Valsa, You've captured sloth in vivid metaphor + image. Your short piece inspires me to get moving. A fine write! Sincerest regards, Brian
