はぐれ者

なけなしの命を使って
底冷えの心は擦り減って
共に歩くことも難しい
僕は何から逃げようとしてるの？

投げ出した命を集めて
形作ろうとして見えない、夜空さえ。
慣れっこの君には簡単だろうな
不器用の僕の手には触れない

君がくれるものなら
全てが美しく見えていたのに

何かになれたならなどとこぼしてしまう
そんな夜にも天使は無く
はぐれ者の嘆きは風に消え
どこかの君に届くだろう

こぼした涙すらが惜しくて
仕舞い込んでいたそんなものばかり
夢の続きも見えなくなるほど
咎め続けた
明日ばかりが
怖くて目を閉じれば
光が育む影すら見えなくて

何か欲しいなら何を与えるべきか
わからず進む道でも
誰か、心つなげてと願う。
それすらできないこの夜でも
どこかの君へ届くだろう

はぐれ者

C’est la période des fêtes de fin d’année et avec elle, celle des longs dîners et rassemblements avec nos proches. Ces retrouvailles se font généralement sous le sceau de la convivialité. Mais pour certaines personnes, elles connotent au contraire la crainte de tout un faisceau de moments désagréables, de la dispute à table à la remarque raciste d’une cousine en passant par les piques d’un oncle aigri. Comment appréhender les interactions avec les autres lorsqu’on n’a pas les mêmes valeurs, lorsqu’on ne rentre pas dans les standards de la masse, lorsqu’on a fait des choix de vie incompris par nos proches ou lorsqu’on fait partie d’une minorité ?

Il est important d’avoir dans la vie des endroits où l’on peut être soi sans s’excuser ou se justifier, des espaces de bienveillance où l’on se sait en compagnie de personnes partageant le même vécu. Cet épisode parle de l’importance de pouvoir s’attabler avec ses pair.e.s, du pouvoir revigorant de ces moments, de non-mixité et de mixité choisie.

En première partie, Émilie Laystary s’entretient avec Delphine, qui a fondé les ateliers de dégustation de vins Œnologouine. En tant que passionnée de vins, Delphine propose par le biais de cette association des initiations au vin en mixité choisie (sans hommes cis), loin de l’habituel sexisme du milieu. Elle raconte à Émilie Laystary le bonheur de (et la nécessité de pouvoir) se retrouver entre lesbiennes pour faire autre chose que préparer des affiches politiques.

En deuxième partie d’émission, vous entendrez Linh et Aaliyah Express, membres du Collectif Asiatique Antiraciste. Iels reviennent sur les bienfaits de pouvoir se retrouver entre personnes asiatiquetées, pour partager les expériences et militer, mais aussi pour le plaisir rare de ne pas être « la seule personne non-blanche de la tablée ».
