No Repentance

.
I've never shot someone in the knee cap,
I really hope to keep it that way,
It sounds exceptionally painful.
I've never stolen another person's work.
I think I may have plagiarized, once,
in elementary,
does that count?
I've never stalked someone before,
unless facebook counts... then yes, many times.

I have in no way deliberately harmed a small child.
But I would, very deliberately,
harm someone deliberately harming a small child,
very violently.
I have never crashed a car into another car,
or anything for that matter,
'course I've just recently started driving.
I've never broken a mirror before,
so presumably, neither seven years bad luck.

I have never gone streaking before,
I'm pretty certain I could outrun the cops,
I'd just have to be considerably,
more comfortable with my body.
I've never robbed a bank.
I won't say that's never been appealing to me,
if I could even get away with something like that.
I've never killed another human being,
or any living thing
(besides spiders)
I wonder how that would feel.

I've never smoked a cigarette,
not even a puff.
Thank goodness, now I still have my lungs.
I have never drunken an entire bottle of alcohol,
hence, never lost control of my actions and thoughts,
or my precious kidneys.
I've never received an end of the year F,
I've kept them to A's and B's
for the most part.

I have never sworn at an inane teacher,
ok that one was a lie.
I've never participated in satanic rituals,
nor have I ever had the desire to,
those things give me the creeps.
I have never ever stolen a baby from it's crib,
although some are inhumanly tempting.
I've never broken a naive heart,
at least not to my knowledge.

I've never burnt down a house before,
I'm sure I would feel terrible if I did,
especially if somebody aquired injuries in the process
I've never intentionally caused someone
emotional stress.
And... hmmm...
I have never made a list of things
I've never done before.

I really liked this one Beth. The flow was really good and contrast of subjects kept me really interested. Good Job!
