Cheeseburger In Purgatory

(With apologies to Jimmy Buffett and Pastor Martin Niemöller.)

When they came for the pot,
I was silent;
I was not a pot smoker.

When they came for the tobacco,
I did not speak out;
I was not a tobacco smoker.

When they came for the trans fat,
I held my tongue;
I did not eat (much) trans fat.

When they came for my cheeseburger,
There was no one left to speak out.
