Cruelty Comments

This poem creates a world, or perhaps THE world, because it is recognizably our present day place of being. There are varied conditions and experiences in this world, some positive, others negative. You contrast two kinds of cruelty and show why you consider one worse than the other. Your language is precise, the alternative negative/affirmative positions, clear, and (I want to highlight this) the whole poem is like a tightly coiled device with an exlosive release.

Yes, betrayal is the worst pain. Nicely written, Sana
