the evil eyes they follow

by autumn-whipple

blue and white cast upon you like rice at a wedding they follow wanting lusting calling cursing but how to ward them? when you ache and plead with yourself your empty bank account, god for something you find beautiful in another yes, the evil eyes are always watching because they are yours.

Notes

this was for a prompt where you didn't name the seven deadly sins, so this one can have every adjective but the word envy. I chose the evil eye, because that represents the stain jealousy casts on others.
