"INVOCATION OF THE BRAZEN VESSEL"

The brazen vessel is the instrument of compulsion.

The spirit must enter it.

Must state its true name.

Must reveal the nature of its operation.

No institution survives

the accurate naming

of what it actually does.

I conjure you by the name beneath your title

By the function underneath your stated aim

The central bank that calls itself a steward

While engineering who can play the game

The international body dressed in neutral language

That convenes in January altitude

To distribute the coordinates of the coming decade

To the ones who built the room

And own the view

Enter the vessel

State the true name

Not the name on the document

Not the name on the chamber wall

The name of what you actually do

When the cameras are off

And the session is closed

And the century gets signed

What is your true name beneath the letterhead

What is your function beneath the stated aim

What moves in the quiet room in January

Before the policy descends as if from flame

I conjure you into the open

By the authority of the one who understands

The brazen vessel holds what cannot hide

When named by sovereign hands

The digital identity framework calls itself convenience

The CBDC calls itself financial inclusion's door

Programmable currency with an expiration function

China's digital yuan already keeping score

One hundred thirty nations building the infrastructure

The interoperable surveillance grid is real

Every transaction logged and cross-referenced

In the vessel of the system's true reveal

What is your true name beneath the letterhead

What is your function beneath the stated aim

What moves in the quiet room in January

Before the policy descends as if from flame

I conjure you into the open

By the authority of the one who understands

The brazen vessel holds what cannot hide

When named by sovereign hands

The spirit that refuses to reveal its name

Is the spirit with the most to lose from naming

Every institution built on managed ignorance

Depends on the population not examining

The name beneath the name

Is the mechanism

And the mechanism

Loses its authority

The moment it is spoken

Into open air

Into the vessel.

State the name.

The working has begun.

And it does not end

until the true name

has been spoken

where everyone

can hear it.
