It’s spooky season
But as any black cat
Can reliably reason
There is no sin
In refusing to
Let the old ghosts in.

Morning all. The first thing this Pixie dreads in the morning? Gabe's shower solo.
Today: an 80s classic, wailed at full volume. 'It's a #Sin.'
Windows slam up and down the street.
It's time to reach for the hot water switch. 'Enough, Gabe. Your audience has spoken!'
#vss365

What if they told you
That sin is but a lie
About the truth of yourself

So that being
Rather than not being
Is where goodness lies?

Because then
There is no greater good
Than to be yourself.

every dream
wrapped in #sin
tasting those forbidden spoils
brands upon my tongue
stains upon my skin

There once was a poet named 
Asin  
Whose guilt made her 
conscience grow thin, 
she'd quake from within,  
Hide #sin with a grin,  
Till the devil invited her in

He took in the #moment. The faint scent of flowers, the warmth of the sun on his skin, and soft birdsong melodies. A #sin to ignore these things while the shadow of doom drew near.

Deny
I have none

Embrace
I'm all in

Avoid
It finds me

Regret
I wear it

Grieve through
I bear it

Get help
Resist it

Give in
Sorrow it

Ask Him
Forgiven

How to create
Without feelings
Imagined words
All faked
An exhibition never staged
Pretending and pretension
Blood I've never bled
Fills the only lake
On the only #island
No tides
To wash me away
Can't give
Never had emotion
Ghost of intention
Original #sin
Even this truth
A series of lies
#vss365

Cast me into the fire
The garden lives
in my breast
A #sin? Their words not mine
I am kindling
I am stone
I am the name
They dare not speak
Reborn phoenix
With your ghost of a kiss
on my lips and my lips
And a love and a knowledge
We revel in

A mark was etched into himself for each #sin

It was supposed to be a physical reminder of the pain he caused, but it only made him want to do more

As long as the police didn't suspect him of murder, and he had untouched skin left to carve on, he would continue

Tears once flowed now frozen;
bitter pearls of crystalline.
Autumn curls its fingers
rigor sets for dormant time,
approaching with each gusting breeze
howling hollow in the mind.
Winter's #sin: to eat the meat
and leave behind the rind.

For long I thought
It is a #sin to forget you
For long I cound't dare
To let you go
Now I realise that
The sin was to mourn you
Not to celebrate the time
You and I had together
The sin was to keep carrying
The corpse of our love forever

We don't believe in #sin, but we do enjoy it from time to time. The good stuff. The sin you would never tell your mother about, though she probably enjoyed hers in her time. The kind of sin that makes the neighbours blush and avoid eye contact in the street. I'll ask for forgiveness later.
#vss365

I say, if you're going to #sin, sin big. Don't waste your time on gluttony or envy when you could be exploring the depths of lust and greed.

Us

This is the sin
That we’re livin in
Can be quickly rectified
If those of us who’ve denied
The damage that he’s been doing
Would stop for a moment eschewing
Their societal responsibility
For promoting human dignity
& make the decision
To end this derision

Idiotic
Nonsense.

Nora finds a folded up piece of paper in Bob's pocket. On the inside it says, "It's a #sin to look this good." She thinks this really takes the cake. Surely he can't be serious? Nora thinks he planted the note there just to give her a giggle.

Who will purify
what remains of our guilty #sin❓
GOD refuse - also.
