THEN THEY CAME*

Some will say '' I was not one of them ''

'' I kept me head down ''

'' Kept my mouth buttoned ''

'' My nose clean ''

'' Till one day I muttered something ''

'' Some heard me ''

'' Reported me to THEM ''

'' Now THEY have come fore me ''

'' And you know what one said a word! ''

*With acknowledgement to Pastor Martin Niemoller
