First they came …

First they came for the activists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was too privileged.

Then they came for the Arts TAs, and I did not speak out—
Because I never went to any of my conferences.

Then they came for the bikers on campus, and I did not speak out—
Because I lived too close for a bike in the Ghetto.

Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak for me.
