The closing line of the poem, “the altar of loneliness” (Line 14), frames spiritual isolation as a devotional act. There is a deeply sinister tone as the reader is encouraged to come together with others in a way that is impersonal and unhealthy. However, the moment reflects that this is a very real truth for many who live their lines in the liminal space between emptiness and fulfilment that exists on social media. Because the poem builds to this moment of indoctrination, the speaker could be considered an anthropomorphism of loneliness itself. The altar is not only a place of worship but a place of cumulation in which the beliefs of those beholden to social media reach their point of no return.
