ON SEVEN DEADLY SINS The seven deadly sins are the humans' true creations.  To live with gluttony sexual actions digest the disruption of the mind, gluttony is a luxuria of food.

Seductions of Sin With the lusts of the world: do I thee; threaten more? Is this what the world has to offer; since its originated defiance? That set the scene for this world; to attest and set afire, for the rest of 'sin' to complete with such desire! The call is strong in sin here: am I too...

The Seven Deadly Sins
If you laugh at anger and allow some pride, You may not be quite the same person inside; If you ignore a little greed, just to yourself, And inspect sloth in worship as an act of self, You’ll become lazy more often than you like, Expecting no consequences, no laborious hike, Back to work, concern...

Wronged--Seven Deadly Sins

I trust that you will note I’m not to blame When you have heard how I’ve been put to shame. She scolds me when I’ve had too much to eat, Objects when...

They look like they best things When in reality they'll torture you Until you're dead inside There seven deadly sins were my life The man who stood by me wasn't the one to blame Although he made me feel more pride Then anyone would consider human And then I got too cocky And he left me for the terrible things I'd done It seemed...
