There’s this new thing that’s sweeping the town that’s making all the traders more true to their word. It’s a fearsome device their opponents are bringing and it’s making all the deals more honest and sturdy. Some are calling this the self-vocifier, where if you say a thing, you gotta make it so.
Some think it’s magic, most think it’s tech. Others say it’s self-control, but I don’t know.

You bring it to a meeting and you make an agreement. You come to terms and you sign on the line.
You try to be tricky. You try to be a shark, but you make the deal and you cut it fine.
That’s when the device here comes into play. It makes you do what you say you would.
It makes you act like you cut your thumb. LIke you swore an oath, like if you were good. .

This won’t last long. It’ll break real soon. Some power-that-be will destroy it soon.
How could we all live in a world so just that all meetings ran with us so attuned?
But let’s bathe for now in this joyous time while we have this thing that lets us be
in agreement so we can finally know what it was like to finally agree.
