Je suis ...

Je suis ...
Je suis l'homme, je suis l'enfant
Je suis la femme noire, la femme jaune, la femme blanche
L'homme noir, l'homme jaune, l'homme blanc
Je suis l'oiseau et le poisson, la tortue et le cheval qui court
Je suis l'herbe et l'arbre
Je suis la mer et la montagne
Si je fais du mal à une partie de moi
À l'enfant qui est en moi
À la femme qui est en moi
De n'importe quel pays, de n'importe quelle couleur
Je me fais du mal à moi-même
Aussi ai-je souvent mal à toutes ces parties de moi
Mutilées, torturées, affamées en quelque lieu du monde
Le jour approche où je serai entière et entier
Où j'aurai assumé ma féminitude, ma mâlitude
Ma négritude, ma jaunitude
Je suis l'homme, je suis l'enfant
Je suis la femme noire, la femme jaune, la femme blanche
L'homme noir, l'homme jaune, l'homme blanc

here is a ruff translation of the poem above

I am human, I am the child
I'm the black woman, the yellow woman, the white woman
The black man, the yellow man, the white man
I am the bird and fish, the turtle and the horse that runs
I am the grass and the tree
I am the sea and the mountain
If I do hurt a part of me, the child who is in me,the woman who is in me
From any country, of any color
I do hurt myself
So, I often feel the pain in all these parts of me
Maimed, tortured, hungry anywhere in the world
The day approach where I will be whole and entire
Where I have assumed my "féminitude ,my "mâlitude", my "négritude",my "jaunitude
I am human, I am the child
I'm the black woman, the yellow woman, white woman
L'homme noir, l'homme jaune, l'homme blanc
The black man, the yellow man, the white man

btw, there are moments to cry, and moments to speak,
moments for fight, and moments for rituals ...
these images are just about my emotion, revolt against stupidity, sadness for mankind, and the urgent need of LOVE.

who are you to decide i am not this or that ?
Lady, what do you know of me ? did you walk in my shoes ?
No, you don't know anything, nor my life, nor my screams and fights
is it so difficult to undestand one can "be a Charlie" and have a functionnal brain ? I am a Charlie (and Hara-Kiri too) reader since i was a child ... in a way they are part of my education, part of what made me ... i kwow deep what i am standing for. and talking about.

and ... your list of i am seems a little short
endless is the terrible list of 'I AM" and "I AM NOT" that divide us humans
lets work on the "WE ARE ONE", shall we ?
