SLOTH

"Sloth you are"
Said the Priest.
''You are sinful''.

Numb I sat
Staring bleak
'I thought that shits cool!!'

"Work is life"
He said,
"You should know"

Wait a minute!
I wondered,
No one's told me so.

"You should pay"
He demanded,
"With ambition and diligence.”

OK Boss!
I said,
"Let's just talk sense."

"Father!"
He prayed,
"What the hell is wrong with this chap?"

"Is it just me
Or some
Ungodly mishap?"

The Lord
Didn't answer,
But I did.

I told him
A story
Of when I was a kid.

He carefully
Listened,
As I spoke with frailty.

And hugged me
In the end,
Saying,"You're not guilty!"

It left me baffled;
Is this
My redemption?

"No!"
Someone shouted,
"It's more of a half drunk situation."
