When They Came for the Vegans...

When they came for the vegans,
I remained silent;
I was not a vegan.

When they locked up the people with anti-war bumper stickers,
I remained silent;
I did not have an anti-war bumper sticker.

When they came for the people who got calls from overseas,
I did not speak out;
I was not a person who got calls from overseas.

When they came for the people who wore t-shirts that Bush people didn't like,
I did not speak out;
I was not a person who wore t-shirts that Bush people didn't like.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
