Health and Justice
Healers, midwives, and the Keeper of Bandages share this office with the village mediator and the Council of Fair Disputes. Remedies may include elderflower syrup, community service, or reciting one's grievance under the full moon.
Health is the clear stream that runs through the valley; justice is the sunlight that keeps its waters pure. Where both flow and shine together, the meadow blooms-not by force, but by harmony. Without justice, the stream grows stagnant; without health, the light reflects on nothing.
When rights are worn like morning dew,
Let duty shine in what we do-
Together just, together true.

A poetic charter pairing freedom with responsibility, this Bill of Human Responsibilities calls for respect, care, and action-honoring rights through stewardship, equality, justice, and peace. A guide for building fairer, kinder, and more sustainable communities worldwide. |
The Scalene Triangle, rather than representing pluralism, shows us a kind of coercive freedom: where you're free to choose, but only from options already shaped by the loudest corner.

The Scalene Triangle
(An Allegorical Sonnet)
The Mouth cries loud atop the crooked frame,
Its teeth gleam white with borrowed myth and flame.
It shapes the air and calls it liberty"
While carving law in speechless mimicry.
The Mirror, cracked, reflects with noble face,
But hides a tremble in its civic grace.
It borrows war-paint, dances to the tune,
Its shadows long beneath a borrowed moon.
The Echo does not speak but amplifies,
It stretches truth until the meaning dies.
What once was choice becomes a tilted scale,
A looped refrain too frenzied to curtail.
Yet still-beneath the noise, a whisper stays:
"Look down, not up" truth walks the older ways."
The Allegorical Cast:
The Mouth (Apex) - U.S. right-wing ecosystem, loud, ideological, power-hungry.
The Mirror (Left Base) - Europe’s nationalist movements, reflecting and adapting.
The Echo (Right Base) - The media machine: social feeds, algorithms, noise.
