From The Wickedness They Love (Bussokusekika)
When bad things happen
To those who believe they’re good
Its not for wanting
‘Tis for their lack of reproach
Their unwillingness to turn
From the wickedness they love

About this poem
https://www.quora.com/Regarding-the-M18-smoke-grenade-used-in-the-Vietnam-War-did-the-colors-have-a-specific-meaning-or-was-the-color-code-changed-from-mission-to-mission-simply-to-mess-with-Charlie This one came to mind after reading the post by Jim Baker…For what it is worth…Take it as ya’ll will…For what it is worth…The shroud of mist lifted as rapidly as it had appeared…I wonder IF I was the only person in town that noticed it???Well the red item in the posted picture mysteriously manifested in situ…Go figure…
