The Seven Deadly Sins, are said, to live
Within the breasts of Men, within the Sins
Dwells Man, I say, protected by clerics
Ways of keeping tame humanity’s kin.

The Seven Deadly Sins begin with words
Of colored rainbows span, lighting Vegas
Fantasies to bleed the souls of true chords
Reach, muting truth with glitter, leaving less.

The colors ‘tween the two remain, shafted
By Pandora’s name, evoked by selfish game
Creating false, mutating beings - crafted
With abilities to maim all-who-came.

Rainbow-Sharp consumes itself, now to tell
How Seven Cosmic Virtues will foretell

Future Past and Presently, no more Hell.
