[Old and Unreadable] Max's Thought-Provoking Poetry

Advantages of the Envious

7 deadly sins circulate inside of you
Yet what is sin, but greatness's deterrent?

The resentful covetousness toward other's belongings
Be it traits, possessions or their own dark longing
Arises from states of vainglory, arrogance, or just plain jealousy
We think of it as a snake when it is the pinnacle of morality

There comes a time where we all lie lost in a trance
With nothing to inspire us to once again dance
We think ourselves worthless because everything has failed
And to submission himself we sit: "All hail."

But we want what others have, and we will not stop
We will not stop until we obtain what has, until now, been lost
Because in this world we wander you need a goal
Something to drool over; food for your soul

What do you aim for, when you can't make sense of the world around?
Simple: You aim for what others have, a clear, precise goal of envious power
