Let us draw no lines in the sand,

my friends,

let us not inquire "whose side are you on?"

We have no need for fences,

or endless sharp divisions,

no, my friends, we need only extend the hand of friendship,

we need only meet eye to eye

in that sweet place of commonality.

You are you and I am I,

and that is enough--

our shared humanness--

that is enough.

Let us just be together

and laugh and talk,

side by side,

you and I.
