Solemn oath of unityA Poem by Rémi RubenREFRAIN: I wanna make a solemn oath of unity You might think I’m a poof, whether dumb, thick or hairy I wish to cherish every Tom, Dick, and Harry! You might as well think I’m a butch, whether chatty, Or bony, I wanna love Bonnie and Cathy By the same token, one outspoken family
What keeps us, poles apart from our next of kin? The books we read or the people we listen to? Aren’t we basically of the same constitution? Two lips to be kissed, two eyelids under which to hide In the name of democracy, let’s all unite! Does this timeworn Chaplin’s speech ring a bell to you? What has happened since then, why can’t we just do it?
REFRAIN
A rather impossible mission to achieve If you wanna ask me or ask yourself frankly Eat bio, vote green, do yoga or meditate Are not enough, unless we change our family Way of life, which breeds most of us unsatisfied Why should I love my kids more than those of others? Are my gametes anyhow superior to yours?
REFRAIN
What if we were all breastfed by different mummies? Beloved by all men, for we could be the offspring, The progenies of any holy genitor What would still impede us from loving one and all? Do you think we’d still have fences, frontiers at all? The only religion we’d have is love everyone No more playing with oneself, no more left-behinds
