There is no such thing as innocence <br />To an addict <br />Like a vampire who craves the blood not the bite <br />It keeps them medicated <br />It keeps them warm <br />It makes them innocent <br />There is no right from wrong <br />Only pain from which to deliver oneself <br />Evil is not a consequence considered <br />Righteous are they who seek to punish the avenger <br />For they will be forgiven <br />There is no such thing as innocence <br />Only justice served cold with revenge and a drink <br />And Justice is a vampire<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lamian-lamentations/
