Je suis Charlie
On my white sheets
On my news paper
On the hands of reader
I write your name
On the pages I've read
On all the white pages
With my swear, my ashes
I write your name
On the idea of secularism
On the tolerance of religion
With my blood, my skin
I write your name
And for the want of a word
I renew my life
For I was born to know you
To name you
Liberty
(directly inspired by "Liberté", written by Paul Eluard)

Glad you have been enjoyed, Ed. Need to write a special piece for Charlie, I have the feeling to be fatherless. And Paul Eluard, especially this poem, is really a model for me. Thank you so much for your support, Ed!
