Seven Deadly Sins (Greed)
My behavior
helps manipulate the weak
Trickery is my foreplay
material things I hoard with pleasure
The thought of someone
having more than I
just leaves me with an aching
to take at no cost
I’m blinded by obsession
Constantly wishing for more
alas in pursuit of wealth and mere objects
I am left poor.
Review Request (Intensity):
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words:
So, my new project is the Seven Deadly Sins, I shall post each (Sin) day by day. Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy and Pride. Then i shall join them together to make a full Poem.

Dear Contessa Teddy;
well, you have successfully covered all the by you perceived character flaws (of yourself) although I would take issue with you on most. No one is perfect; we all have our flaws, but I'm sure, you fall into the average class of kindhearted human beings. And now I'll see how you might put it all together. Great job, dear Contessa.
Jerry
