7 Deadly Sins

7 Deadly Sins

I
Steely blade beckons me,
Nocturne sets darkness free.
Savor edge across tongue,
Shutters at hymn sung.
A knife slips eager skin,
Glide easily; rites begin.

Wrath:
Wrath; I carve on knuckles, minimally deep,
Crimson pearls, bead laboriously seep.
Insulted, justified vengeance feeling so wronged,
Deliver offenders to hell where belonged.
Greed:
Greed; I carve on the palm of hand,
This one hurt; to stop though nowt planned.
Need for monies ultimate transgression,
Unquenchable thirst: for wealth's possession.
Sloth:
Sloth; I carve on the soles of my feet,
Aroma heady: like pungent meat.
A reminder the facilities are all there,
Laziness compelling, you just don't care.

II

Pride:
Pride; this one to me, the most sinful part,
On chest: close to my heart.
I'm nearly giddy with blessed pain,
But by now, convinced I'm no longer sane.
Lust:
Lust; favored most of all,
Fondling arousal, engrave engorged ball.
Ecstasy almost makes me come,
From wickedness done.
Envy:
Envy; my mind over-stimulated stopping to think,
On what part of my body should the blade sink?
Awe I know: moistened brow on my forehead,
For all to see, God's words written in red.
Gluttony:
Gluttony; the most abused of the deadly sins,
On my stomach, I deeply carve, perfuse bleeding begins.
By now the blood loss brings on paradise,
Dizziness overtakes after this profound slice.

Cutting my sanctified rapturous release,
Overwhelming emotions bleed-out begets peace.
Sacraments amend sins of life,
Sorry, I've to pay homage to a knife.
