This is amazing. I love that haunting echo of the last line "As the last lights go out…" Very fitting and a strong final image

The tension seems to lie in the grasping, cruel misery, no goodie in the white hat to save the day.

Cloud nine doesn’t even do the trick!

Written genuinely and reveals the deep care within :)

I think we are left exposed as powerless or complacent or complicit and it begs the question which is it to be ? Thanks for sharing ✨

Thank you SeaJade it feels like the voice of someone who could look away — but chooses not to. There’s courage in that. Your refusal to numb or float above the world reads as deep care, not despair. Staying awake, seeing clearly
