My vicious halos

My vicious halos

A Poem by moog-drika

1. 

Spice of violet,

was stroked with a proud hubris

to crown cosmic win

 

2. 

the sloth’s breath moves with

a little inertia of 

indigo, for null.

 

3. 

bluish bitterness

with squeaky poise

why does envy possess them all?

 

4. 

clamor stares at me

for enthralling green. -the burp 

of greed never ends

 

5. 

drink my realism.

yellow yells for gluttony

to devour my root. 


 

6. 

sun, tastes like orange

diffuses a coppery 

smell to scorch wrath’s meat.

 

7. 

it's me who I crave,

I lust after reflection,

to sense my red wine.

I like the idea of playing with colorful crimes, and the 7 deadly sins have some attractive elements - a rainbow edge, you might say. Some more scattered and wicked thoughts:

1. Male pride and prowess stroked... leading to star burst... Nice
2. Lazy days, blue thoughts... Slow is nice too
3. Scratchy squeaks of protest...jealousy now a blue-eyed goddess?
4. Nature's demands, stirring the guts, insatiable.
5. Wild with desire, the golden shower shoots from its earthy spring
6. Hot burning rays of pain and pleasure assail the senses
7. Tasting the crushed fruit's juice, a mirror selfie, with hints of longing.

I love you for reviving my inanimate soul.

Well, I read this a bunch of times and I like it but despite some possible help below, I need an interpreter. :) I've seen this type of writing many times before but I'm not sure what you'd call it? Abstract? Symbolism?

I realize hubris means pride, but isn't the first deadly sin lust? Hmm? I may need more time with this. haha.

Well I haven't followed the sequence of those 7 vices. So, you will find it kinda jumbled up haha.read more

thanks so much for the compliment. It means a lot. :'D
What a lovely haiku family!

However, number 3 does not quite follow the 5 - 7 - 5 syllable count.

Great poetry :)

Very interesting read. It is certainly intriguing. I don't understand the "technical theory" behind the haiku.

But I enjoyed the read non the less

The only reason I like haiku is that you can speak a lot using lesser words. Otherwise I dont follow.. read more
What I like here is the haiku like compact verses, coupled with the anti-consumption theme transported with key words like crave and gluttony. So a fine poem, well written !

I am loving your rainbow writes, they truly are spectacular. I am wondering why you used the word vicious in your title? You have created a little poem for each one of the seven colours.
