I shudder to think who is next…
First they came for the communists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist.
Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionists.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Catholic.
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.
Alternate ending…
Then they come for our prenatal brothers and sisters,
and I didn’t speak out because I was already born.
Then they came for our elderly,
and I didn’t speak out because I was young.
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.
