Sin

If there was a sin the man in the sky blue shirt embodied, it was Sloth.
The man would come each day.
Sit all day.
Demanding his table cleaned.
Demanding more food.
Gluttony took a back seat to Sloth.
Lazy was kind.
Never helped himself.
As he sat & ate himself to death.

Monster Within

Twitter VSS365 Prompt

They stalked their prey.
The hunger in them had grown.
They could no longer hold back.
The blood red ring around the moon glistened with anticipation.
The Devil’s Hour upon them.
Warmth of the blood spilled across their fingers.
A sigh.
The monster temporarily satisfied.

The Night

Twitter VSS365 Prompt

The music pounded.
The kiss far from chaste.
His sharpened nail ran down my sternum.
I shivered as my blood started to flow.
The pain was intense, the pleasure more so.
I gave him access to my blood.
My soul.
My life.
But just for the night, as the music pounded on.

A Planted Seed

Twitter VSS365 Prompt

Charity was the one to give.
The one to help.
Then a moment of desperation.
Skim just a little.
One act allowed a seed to be planted

So, they took.
With no regard.
Charity fell.
They let Envy win & destroy.
They fell to their envy.

The Gift

Eros stood looking down at the Earth.
The mortals living their fleeting lives.

For that Eros had blessed them with love.

Breathing

Twitter VSS365 Prompt

Loving them was never hard.

Run

Vss365 Twitter Prompt

Free.
I am free.

Family

VSS365 Twitter Prompt

I was generous with those I loved.
Until the day I learned the blood of the covenant was thicker than the water of the womb.
Those I sacrificed for, turned their backs.
Friends had my back.
I have a new family now.
They know the real me.
For they are my real family.

The Fall

Patience is a virtue.
That is what they say.
What isn’t known is Virtue fell.
Became a sin.
The anger builds.
Suddenly Explodes.
Patience is no more.
Only red hot rage remains.
The virtues cry…
And the sins…
They rejoice.
For Patience fell…
Now Long Live…
Wrath!
