Let's shut up
It would be a fragrant minute,
with no rush, without engines,
we would all be together
in an instant, instant restlessness.
Maybe not doing anything
just for once
maybe a great silence
could interrupt this sadness.
Just for once on Earth
let's not speak any language,
for a second let's stop,
let's not move our arms so much.
The ones that plan wars
victories with no survivors,
(there are none)
would put on clean clothes
and they would walk with their brothers, their brothers.
Don't confuse what I want
with inaction...
Life is only what you do...
Let's shut up
Now let's count to twelve
and stay quiet.
Now let's count to twelve
and you shut up and I leave.
If we couldn't be united
while moving our lives so much,
maybe not doing anything for once,
maybe a great silence could
interrupt this sadness, this sadness
this never understanding each other
threatening each other with death
Let's shut up
