Politics is a necessary evil. The art -at times clumsy, at times sublime- of surviving in public for those who dare to practise this discipline. Yes, discipline, because although today it may resemble a theatre of the absurd, it was not born as spectacle but as tool. It arose from the need to coexist, from the urgency to impose order where only force existed, from the intuition that life in common demands more than impulses and desires.
Beyond, on a plane belonging neither to earth nor sky, rises the Pedestal of the Eternals. There stand those who existed before language could name them. Gaia, the primordial Earth; Cronus and Rhea, parents of gods; Oceanus and Tethys, encircling the world; Hyperion and Theia, light and sight; Atlas, bearing the heavens; Prometheus and Epimetheus, brothers in destiny; Metis, deep wisdom; Helios, Selene, and Eos, marking the rhythm of the day. Above them, the Olympians: Zeus, Hera, Athena, Ares, Apollo, Artemis, Poseidon, Hades, and Hermes. At the margins of the wind, Aeolus. And at the frontier between myth and deed, the heroes: Heracles, Achilles, Odysseus, Perseus, and Atalanta.
Two chambers, two gazes upon the same world that runs without knowing where. And when the moment comes, each will speak for itself.
