#25 When you say avarice the very word Sounds like sinking your teeth in And shaking your prey. Uttering gluttony almost chokes you, Like youre already full To the point of vomiting. Sloth makes that sloppy sound And wrath makes your mouth Whisper doom. Envy makes a narrow, stingy sound While prides long I opens your mouth wide And puffs you out. But lust, unpronouncable without your tongue, Makes a sound that glitters, luxurious, irresistible - And deceptively close to love.
