Pride had Faith on the road   Then they walked for a while   'Til they sussed Hope and Lust   Who winked at Faith and smiled   Though Lust Faith had always hated   Pride held Hope and soon was sated   So Gluttony and Sloth were born   Of Faith and Hope's desire   In the froth of Pride their sire   The barbarity is Charity is wet nurse to both   In prosperity a verity loathed      As we search and search   But do not find   Some kind of heaven   Seven      When the seventh surgeon kissed her   And enhanced her   Then my well missed sister   Was burgeoning with cancer   The transcendentalist had shown her the answer   You're never alone   When you're a topless dancer      And inside we fight   What we hide from sight   All is equable in God's own eyes   Seven wrong and seven right      Wrath came upon Fortitude in the flowers   Prudence spied from the path   While Fortitude coaxed and mewed for hours   Then to Temperance his wife's dismay   Wrath quaffed Greed and Envy's cunning   Offering a cocktail tray   Now Wrath subdued Envy with Green raped Fortitude   'Til Justice descended her tower and spoke   She Wrath awoke and held Wrath's coat   While Wrath slit both their throats      Seven sisters smoking marijuana mexicana   In their duenna's absence, listening to Madonna   With their pasha distant subsistent on bananas   Even glister in their visitless zenana      Seven      Seven days and seven nights   Seven brothers seven kites   Flown on seven testing flights   Seven days the sun shone bright   Seven nights by candlelight   Seven brothers seven kites   Flown into the seventh night
