Is Happiness a Sin?
Is Happiness a sin?
For when these pockets starve so does this gut
But luxury fuels thy barge to distant shores
And hauls all burdens and angst
Without a tear.
Is Happiness a sin?
If man do choose to follow instincts
Before he has be wed his half.
Has he fordone his chance of life?
Has he lost more than purity that night?
Is Happiness a sin?
If merriment does result in carousing,
Celebration and cheering success
Indulgence but once to illuminate a memory;
Will the soul wake burnt that morrow?
Is Happiness a sin?
If so, I fancy it over morality.
What is a life without liveliness?
‘Tis air without wind.
So sin it will be.
