Envy. (Tanka)

She begrudged the cat,

who had nothing but nine lives—

thus, she chopped her soul

into facades of many;

her death, by a thousand cuts.

Pride. (Haiku)

Buoyant balloons blown,

bask in their fullness of air,

’til they burst to bits.

Wrath

The golems of ire,

spits fire into men’s faint hearts,

coursing madness through.

Lust

Desire of the flesh,

raises tombs where Pharaohs lay,

sowing seeds of fey.

Gluttony

The earthy goddess,

enslaves men to her vile vines,

insatiating all.
