Author's Note:

Well, um, this is the product of thirty minutes procrastination on an essay for English. I was going to do a story with chapters representing these, but my twisted mind thought poetry would be better. I thought it was humorous, mostly because of the variations I created.

You may think otherwise.

No flames :) Reviews appreciated.


|| Seven Deadly Sins ||

xxx


First is Extravagance,

Shown by the King,

Duncan's quite wealthy,

He owns many things.

Tapestries and furniture,

Silver and gold,

All coloured purple,

He really is bold.

Duncan cares not,

For the fate of his land,

He'll be content,

With jewels in his hand.


Horace is Gluttony,

A weakness for the knight,

Of anything edible,

He'll have a bite.

His favourite of foods,

Jenny's homemade pie,

Which in its absence,

He'd surely die.

So great is his hunger,

It cannot be controlled,

Whole villages thrive,

Since everything's sold.


Thirdly is Greed,

Which Tug can represent,

This pony's desire,

Is never content.

He loves attention,

Pampering and affection,

Tug won't accept,

Anything but perfection.

But what he wants most,

Is shiny red fruit,

Delicious fresh apples,

He'll chase in pursuit.


One lazy person,

A certain Commandant,

Crowley is Sloth,

Of work he's nonchalant.

His only great quality,

Is to hide and stay still,

But none of them know,

Even in this he lacks skill.

'Cause in reality,

Crowley's secret to keep,

Is that during his duty,

He's fast asleep.


Fifth is a sin,

That you should be aware,

Halt's temper,

Can be quite a scare.

He knows so many,

Different ways,

To make a person,

Beg and pray.

So go with caution,

And keep out of his path,

'Cause angering Halt,

Might incur his Wrath.


Then there is Envy,

Shown by Cassie,

Jealous but determined,

She can be quite sassy.

But still she wants Will,

'Cause he won't admit,

His feelings to Alyss,

He's afraid to commit.

Mostly she hates it when,

Girls flirt with her knight,

Her Champion Horace,

Will be hers now, alright?


Last of all is Pride,

Which Gilan is shown by,

Handsome and talented,

He aims for the sky.

Don't think his young age,

Is simply a charade,

'Cause truly Gilan's deadly,

With his bow and blade.

A good sense of humour,

He crack's many a joke,

But if you don't find it funny,

His anger you'll provoke.


A/N:

Will was too hard to attach here, he was going to be Greed, but I thought Tug fit it better. Lust used to be translated as Extravagance, and since there isn't a lustful character, I chose Duncan.

Anything else you can message/review and I'll be happy to explain my odd choices.

All I have learnt from this, is my sense of humour is twisted, and I need a life.
