In semi-darkness.

“Why am I here?”
“You think you’re so

The voice went on. “I did
Everything I could,” I cried.
“Oh, everything”? “I don’t

More quietly. “Some people
Think you think you do.
“I can’t help that,” I whimpered.
“You can’t help anything,”
The voice said and dropped
An octave. “I’ve got to get back,”
I said. “She needs me.” “Oh yeah,”
The voice sneered? “For what?”
