  6. I’m playing it straight forward. Sly. Sly is his way. The sly man of today. He makes his mark, quick. He leaves his life for tomorrow. He’s always on top of things even when he’s truly not. He’s already there when he’s so far away, the sly man of today.

  7. Mazing smiles, for the self, or for the depiction to deception, slyly churn
    honorable nobility in the smacking white teeth are hard to decipher, covering-
    the inside rib cage that swirls with disgust, though camouflaged by knave-like happiness,
    the frog leaps from lily pad to lily pad, softly, with a land so gentle-the end of a genuine smile,
    may be so, the puppeteer pulls strings to yank a body parts, not all movements standardize,
    taking in what we a crass beholder wants to see, pranks on perception, give chances
    relinquish from the bitter pedals that are watered down, graze the fresh flower pedals with thou tip of thou finger,
    nature has its tendencies of going gray, going brown, to bring frowns-for insects-for rhinos-for giraffes–human nature as similar vain, reluctantly foreshadows doubts, seeing past intolerable doubt is where the rainbow ends, gold awaits those patient enough to find good will!

  8. He thought he was so sly. To go behind my back to be with another woman. He actually thought I wouldn’t find out.

    I am heartbroken at it. I never thought he was that kind of man. But after finding him sleeping with her in our bed, in our very own home, I lost any love for him I had.

    Yes, he thought he was sly.

  10. Silver grinned, ducking under the bars and toward the black haired boy on the skateboard. He reached to hands in front of him before pouncing on him, a scream echoed in his ears and was soon followed by a laugh. That would show them, he could be sly sometimes.

  11. Kieran grinned slyly, unable to help himself with the current thoughts running through his mind. Codex was standing only a few feet away from him, looking around the area they were in.

  14. Jeremy was a smart kid. One day, Jeremy spotted a jar of his favorite cookies on a counter that was high up. He knew his mom wouldn’t let him have it so he had to be sly to get the jar. He went to the garage, grabbed a ladder, and brought it to the kitchen. Then he climbed on to the ladder and up to the counter. He finally had his cookies.

  15. Foxes are sly, a sly person could be sneaky, snakes are sly. Sly things are sneaky and deceiving. A snake can lie, a fox can sneak, a person could evade. Slyness runs in the world, creatures and people share the same characteristics such as slyness and sneakiness. Slyness overrides happiness, so that you can find happiness by being sly, when you are sly you can evade around things, slippery as oil. Happiness and slyness are completely different, each with their own reasons of action, to be sly you may want something, such as the wolf in “Little Red Riding Hood,” or the snake in “Adam and Eve.” Slyness exists all around us, a sinful thing the poisons souls and devours your will to do better, making sour thoughts, mellow thoughts, arise in your mind.

  16. I know people that are sly. There are video games that havet he word sly. Like the video game SLy Cooper, the “famous” thief racoon or ferret or maybe even a striped, black otter. The word sly is very good. Being sly is bad, because you are sneaky and stealthy, and then people think you are a stalker or scary. I am not sly.

  17. The fox was very sly. He crept out of the forest at the crack of dawn and went hunting. He was watching a particular squirrel all day. As soon as he went out to get it it, it ran off. Maybe tomorrow. He went back to the forest and slept. He heard a rustling through the leaves next to him. It was the same squirrel.

  18. I do not usually see this word in my novels and writing, but I know that it is a great word to use. Sly is another work for sneaky, or cunning and it is usually used when talking about detectives. I think that the word sly is a good word to have in you vocab, and that it is very descriptive. Sly as a fox, one of the many phrases used with this word is very descriptive. The word sly is used as an adjective. It is a fun word to use, and is a great way to move your writing farther along.

  25. She could feel him instantly as he walked into the room, the way he looked at her with a sly glance. She knew that it would not be long until he made his move. She wanted him, craved him. The smell of him drove her into a wild frenzy, but she must hide it for there were others around watching, waiting for a reaction from either of these two. Their bitter feud was no more than a game of cat and mouse, to see which one would be the victor and claim their prize. She had waited long enough she stepped gingerly towards her prey, trying not to spook him. Although he appeared distracted by someone else he was fully aware of her moving towards him. He quivered in anticipation he could not wait to be come the victor and claim his prize. He must act coy as if he did not notice her coming towards him.

  30. The sly fingered boy moved his fingers over the keys with great skill. His mother had always told him that he had piano fingers. They were long and graceful, but somehow lanky. The music was beautiful. No one in the room knew of course that it was a sham. His fingers touched the keys yes, but they made no sound. The recording was hidden in the inner workings of the piano and he had set up certain keys to do certain things. George was a master con artist.

  33. It wasn’t so much the turn of the mouth as the look in the eye that gave it away, she thought as it approached. Monsters, miscreants, men — all wanted, but not all were willing to bargain honestly for their wants. It seemed, again, she had a dishonest buyer.

  34. There once was a detective, Mr. Fox. He was very good at his job, and had a good sneaky nature to him. One day a snake, Albert, went to the bank for some money. The bank wouldn’t give him any though because he had already taken out more than he had. Albert started to threaten them, and took out a weapon, luckily Mr. Fox sensed that something bad and dangerous was about to happen. Mr. Fox got there at the perfect time, because otherwise things were going to get intense. He hand-cuffed the snake and put him in the slammer. Yet again Mr. Fox, the cunning detective saved the day!
