Once upon a time
A king
Blind
Down there
In a strange land
Where differences
Together
Formed a vast garden
Overflowing with life
With ideas, colours, words,
A mosaic
Of benevolent silence
Nothing and no one
Was the same
Nor really different
For everything came together
In a unique puzzle
Of fragments of harmonies
One day the king
Clear-sighted
Woke up
In a thousand pieces
On the other side of the mirror
And thought
Let’s include inclusion in our way
To shape the world
Let’s create
Without pencils
The rays of the sun
A machine full of ideas
A new impetus
A possibility for all
A unique logical invention
Unclassifiable innovative moving
A device to
Recognize and tell
Diversities
Integrate them
In our galaxy
Of superheroines
Of all kinds
No weak links
A generous yogi
To sublimate souls
A beneficent friend
On whose shoulder
To lean on
A benevolent machine
That would read
The darkest thoughts
And transform them
Into positive
Vibrations
A kaleidoscope
A painting
An amphora
A rainbow
A way of working
Moving forward together
Further and further
To reach
The heights
You lend me your eyes
I offer you my arm
To guide you
My legs carry you
Far away
Your hand writes for me
A refrain
The machine
Bursts with
Ingenious ideas
You take out
What you need
A helping hand
A drawing
A swarm
Of dilligent bees
To make the earth turn
One morning
We open our eyes
Clear
On our superpowers
With endless possibilities
In our hands
Once upon a time there was a king
Look at me
The king is you
The machine
Is all of us
It’s life
Its engine
Our ideas
The invention of the century
Let’s help
Each other
Because here, there, everywhere
We are all
After all
Superheroes.
