The takeover was not a surprise. We had hope that it would happen. It wasn’t as flashy as the facades of despots, just honest and gritty. The mighty were low in character and high on power, while the rest of us wanted to be free of their hold on us. How inconvenient their power was the reason for the destruction of our world. My heart ached every time we lost another species, or the death rate rose from pollution, or we choked on the “clean air and water.” We had a right to live the kind of lives we deserved!
