7 ain't so lucky

Where did it all go? Is it hiding from deadly sins? Is it being killed by them?

Greed killed the economy. Millions of middlemen taking a piece of pie and rasing prices during trades. Artificially inflating everything so they can go home with a bottle of wine instead of a bottle of beer.

Gluttony kills our children. It also infests them. They want that second happy meal and that bigger slice. Yum yum yum, thump thump thump, stroke.

Sloth is feeding the machine that is convenience. Why not have the treadmill walk on itself for you? Mixed with habits of gluttony, early death is not a choice, it's an expectation.

Lust is spawning more evil. Not that children are evil, but the young ones of the sinful are. Or they will pick up habits of these deadly sins and pass them on.

Pride is causing anger all across the world. "I'm better than you, submit to me". People thinking better of themselves and causing conflict to defend it. Simply disgusting.

Envy is a fickle one. It's interesting to think how much of this there it. Mind you i often seems to be envy of other deadly sins. Envy of greed, envy of gluttony.

Vengeance is killing anyone who's still alive. Churning anger and holding terror deep within to bring it back with fury and intrest. Of course, vengeance bring more vengeance.

These really are deadly sins... not that I want to sound like a preacher of doomsday, but things aren't looking to bright.
