Bait
The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. Even from a distance, one could not mistake the faint, cheery glow of trembling flame for anything else. Yet its presence was incongruous with this location in time and space. Warm wavelengths of light seeped out sacriligiously into pristine darkness.

It’s much worse now. You never think it can be much worse, but it is a little - a little more each day. Your momentary shock glazed over by a necessary calm, a forced calm as you get about the business of living through each 24-hour cycle. You escape to indifference, you swallow that soundbite, you turn away from that conversation. You shut down your senses to the point of isolation and plugging your ears so that you do not lash out and yourself become the object of scorn.
