Ubuntu

I've been thinking
about
Ubuntu.

I am.
You are.
We are.

This word

is not from my lips or my people
I do not wish to appropriate.

"Colonizer."
I'm sorry.
AND

we are Ubuntu.

My wellbeing is your wellbeing is my wellbeing is yours
because
Ubuntu.

May I taste your word
in my mouth
for the sake

of
us
both?
