... Greed...A Collection Of 7 Deadly Sins

Rating: 3.5


Spat out of the mouth of Satan
Comes forth a needy demon
With desires exploding
Out of proportion
On the souls of selfish Victims
His ambitions forgets good morals


Hunger fuel in rage
Passion burns insane
His thirst should be quench
Craving fed, yeaning comforted
Give him more, give him more!
His hunger is driving him insane
His thirst must always be quench!

Yearnings well comforted!
Give him more! give him more
Even if he takes his victims to hell
His hunger will never be fed!

Hi Eyan - We live in a very greedy World. The source of GREED is SATAN (V 1) therefore it is a vice to avoided at all costs. GREED always wants more (V 2) which explains why the richest people are often the meanest - give little to Charity and by-pass the church plate. The end of the GREEDY PERSON is HELL (V 3) with the RICH the POOR end in Abraham's bosom. The friut of the SPIRIT is MODERATION & CONTENTMENT! Score it a MAX because it frightens me - even though I am not a GREEDY PERSON. Yours in Poetry - JOHN.

GREED! an interesting theme ! well structured the Beginning is powerful, you have exactly mentioned the well of GREED -SATAN- progression is continuous - needy demon, desires exploding… - give him more x 4 -- > this affirmation proves the endless DESIRES of GREEDY. the GREEDY is SELFISH, INSANE, EVIL; brings to Hell the End is powerful too, you have exactly mentioned the fate of GREED – NEVER BE FED –
