Beacon of Justice

spirituality free verse witness

Justice as signal, not sermon.

Justice is not a halo. It is the fire you keep lit so the harmed can find the shore without you claiming to be the sea.

Metaphor only — no ballot box in this stanza, only the body learning the difference between witness and performance.

The beacon costs wood and lung. The comfortable will ask you to dim it for the aesthetic.

Keep the flame honest about fuel.

The woodpile is almost gone.
