This is an interesting thought, and the idea of stretching the vertical axis until people end up isolated on the landing is a clever way to visualize how hierarchy fragments us. The diagrams themselves are doing the heavy lifting, which is fine, but the poem reads more like a caption or a note toward a larger argument. The last line is the strongest because it lands with a physical image. A little more tension between equality and uniqueness, or a question about who controls the axis, would give the piece more bite. Still, the concept is sharp.

Albert, your diagram lays out the tension clearly, the moment hierarchy stretches, mobility becomes harder and people find themselves stranded on that landing, neither rising nor descending. It’s a sharp way to show how distance between tiers creates isolation rather than structure. The simplicity of the model works well; it invites the reader to consider how much vertical space a society can bear before connection thins out.
