Loosen now his tight valves.
You do nothing by halves
Not like you've bruised his calves
While he's not got what salves...
His tube deflate through valve:
With six-inch nail hit valve,
The air in tube to halve;
When cops into it delve,
Say "A case of mad valve!"
Ask me my opinion:
It's a heart cast- iron:
A daring to pinion
The arms of one's union,
Dues slicing like onion
In Crowned Lion's Union.

We can them assemble,
For they still resemble.
It won't things dissemble
Nor the whole world crumble
Nor Men cause to amble...
They won't burn like bramble
From moves to assemble:
While others Adamic,
Both also Abrahamic:
Not one part Semites,
And the other Hamites...
Sure,some voice would grumble,
"A Meant Bull!" mumble:
Risks of death's preambles,
For Union a shambles...
Arabs and Zionists:
Their least loved unionist...

A lousy late-to-school child
Big faults sees and makes mild:
In future turns late worker,
A scheduled-time rule breaker,
Later late-to-act husband
You stir with a struck band
To secure quicker favor
For his wife in hell labour...
A late-to-pay fees father,
As his child's fresh debts gather;
Tomorrow's late unionist
Since a meeting is no tryst...
A late-to-alert-the-cops
When a folk to doom hops,
The guy's suicide neck in rope
For having lost basic hope.

"First they came..." by Martin Niemöller
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

"First they came…revisited" by Dennis Spilchuk
First they came for the unborn, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a woman.
Then they came for the children, and I did not speak out—
Because I had no children.
Then they came for the Trump supporters and I did not speak out—
Because I was not political.
Then they came for the unvaccinated—and no one spoke out for me.
