Sin Poem by John Paul Ang

Sin

Rating: 5.0


Vague as it may seem,
Intangible like a dream,
The reason for life has always been,
the acknowledgement of sin.

Take Pride in your soul,
This is what makes you truly whole.
Nothing is sweeter than vanity,
Until it becomes redolent insanity.

Quench your thirst for Lust,
For this has always been a must.
Let your instincts take over,
Don't let your urge become sober.

May Gluttony satisfy you,
This is simply a must to do.
Feed your unending hunger,
Become an insatiable consumer.

Envy is your friend,
It gives you reasons to rend.
As it invites true competition,
It drives away disillusion.

Sloth is not to be ignored,
It rules when you get bored.
don't take action if it's not required,
Apathy could give you a reward.

Greed is an instinct,
It shows that everyone is distinct.
Greed teaches you how to survive,
In a world where scarcity thrives.

Wrath is hate and hate is wrath.
Destruction is a wish that it can grant.
Fill your heart with spite,
Let Wrath give you unsurpassed might.

Sin is instinctively natural,
It gives hope to a world that became brutal.
We Sin because God gave us the power to choose,
We sin because we have a soul to loose.

Our existence is a sin,
As it had always been.
Indulge yourself to what is earthly,
Sin is a visceral ecstasy.
