Boxed in and isolated. Some windows, a few doors, mild connectivity. Passive, dismissive, and distant. Arms length, for your own good, for shelter from the storm. To your corners.
The wilting is ugly, at first there's hope, then decline depressions, ashes to ashes is about right. Remember what can be remembered. Forget the rest. Brain capacity is enormous, but wasted density can ruin thoughts. Avoid the warp.
Take the jump, it'll work out some way or another. How you use your days is how you use your life. Wear it out. Go broken. Lay it all on the line, like soldiers.
