It Breaks the Heart

Will Shetterly posted this picture he found on the web. I’m hoping it was photoshopped. I fear it is not…

Will titled it “How Class War Works.”

I’m not positive, although that certainly is part of it…

I’m sure the casual cruelty of children also plays into it.

And this astonishing human ability to separate ourselves from others, to not see how deeply we are in fact connected, to miss that when one of us is hungry, the world cries out in pain. Deaf to it all…

I fear this image will seep into my own wounds and will haunt my dreams for some time to come…

Perhaps that’s not a bad thing.
