The play on words with batteries is most clever. Darkness and the light of torches plays off dualism as does nurture and torture another word play against torch. Nicely done Cryptic. You know I love word play.

My friend, this is chillingly perceptive. Nothing is violently seized, yet human agency gradually passes to a technological elite claiming exclusive access to systems the wider public cannot examine…disturbingly close to where we are heading. Brilliant work, arqios. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Chilling it carries a lonely feel, one of isolation insulated from the electronic and human an alienation in a cold dark universe. Well written my friend

This is brilliant arqios, no one notices the small changes over a long period until it\'s too late. Indeed, the faint warmth of the severs will be the only thing keeping us warm in the near future.
I do use and embrace new technology and I\'m aware of the dangers it brings. Great awareness write.

My friend, this reminds me of people who flourish without attention, praise, or advantage. Their strength rarely announces itself, yet it lasts. Lovely piece, arqios. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Good write A. We have couple of indoor plants that we often forget to water. That\'s KP, stuck in a corner and forgotten (on purpose!). lol.

Deep meaning in this metaphor my friend. Some plants we treat with great care giving all we think they need yet they are fragile compared to the strength of those that survive on their own, sometimes in the most adverse conditions. I have a plant left by a mother in law sitting in a corner now for over fifty years, sometimes watered sometimes going months without. It lives vibrant as the day I first saw it, I call it immortal. A fave my friend

What a powerful little piece, my friend. We awaken to existence already in motion, unable to choose its beginning and carried steadily toward its ending. The brevity makes that inevitability hit even harder. Excellent work, arqios. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Another metaphor I take it, As we all form part of the train it seems our leader has not checked his gauges and here we go full speed ahead in the dark headed for an abrupt stop at the end of the line. Could be just me and maybe my prejudices of politics and society in general though.

What a beautiful piece, my friend. You capture that sacred stillness before daybreak, when the heavens feel privately shared and even departure carries grace. Quiet, intimate, and deeply moving. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

There’s a damn quiet intimacy in this, with the two stars becoming a private little world shared by “you, and me.” I especially like how they don’t fight the sunrise—they simply exist for their brief moment and then surrender the sky, which gives the poem a graceful sense of impermanence.

I bow to your poetic grace my friend. Your word choice is magnificent as is your imagery but best of all is your pulling of the threads to join all into a well sewn piece.
