Apathy, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @brianrrs37 on Twitter/X)

Did you ever wonder how
How we ended up with Birkenau
Apathy, Apathy

Did you ever wonder why
In the chambers they did cry
Apathy, Apathy

It never starts suddenly
Always builds up slowly
Apathy, Apathy

In the guise of patriotism
Demanding blind loyalty
Apathy, Apathy

See all others as your foe
It’s not that far to go
Apathy, apathy

Silent voices, leave no choices
Powers ovens
Apathy, apathy

Executions undisputed
Hate is where all are rooted
Apathy, Apathy

Did you ever wonder how
We ended up with Auschwitz
Apathy, apathy

Never again should we want to see
Treblinka or Dachau’s misery
Never allow such apathy.
