First they came for the people on Myspace: a moving poem
First they came for the people on MyspaceAnd I did not speak out, because I was not on Myspace
Not many people were, TBH
Then they came for the people on Facebook
And I did not speak out, because I was not on Facebook
Because I'm not twelve
Then they came for the people on Pinterest
And I did not speak out, because I can only look at so many pictures of pancakes, dogs and sunsets
Then they came for the people on Twitter
And I was on Twitter.
But people speaking out was not a problem there, let me assure you.
Oh no.
Interesting poem, i also enjoy the ironic 'like' facebook button at the bottom.

ReplyDeleteFirst they came for the Myspace uses, but I wasn't a Myspace user so I did nothing
Then they came for the Facebook users but I wasn't a Myspace user so I did nothing
Then they came for the Twitter users but I wasn't a Myspace user so I did nothing
Sometime's it's best to turn a blind eye...
