I Should Have Known Better

I should have known better than to be poking around there, especially so close to dark. I should not have scoffed at the "NO TRESPASSING" signs on the fence. I should have known better than to jump the fence. I should have known better than to approach the abandoned shop. I definitely should have known better than to pull off the boards over the door, no matter how rotten they were or how easily they came off. 
I should have known better than to jimmy the door until it opened. I should have known better than to come without a flashlight, thinking my cellphone would throw out enough light. I should have known better than to play with the old machinery, long since stationary without the industrial grade current flowing through its motors. I should have known better than to pry open that box. I should have known better than to stare at what was in the box for too long.
You should have known better than to follow me.
