The child tells me we are the same.

"We eat the same", she says.

"In time," she continues, "we become the things we consume."

"As a child, she lives her life on the ground."

She belongs to the earth where I scavenge.

As an animal, I am less concerned with our likeness.

I want to know how we can both survive.

I ask only one question: "Are we afraid?"

Of what you eat? Where you play? What you breathe? Of this house this world has built you?

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit. Sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit quisque faucibus ex. Adipiscing elit quisque faucibus ex sapien vitae pellentesque.

Of you? she says - and I am startled suddenly, by the ways we are the same.

In time, she answers, "No."

"How can I blame you?"

We are made by what we consume.
