Naivete
The sunlight finds its ways around the clouds just to go through the taxi window and blind me while the bugs swim in my sweat. The rancid stench of human waste can’t escape my lungs and there’s garbage all around the frozen interstate. My family is next to me squeezing in this taxi, yet I don’t feel claustrophobic because there aren't even doors. I allow myself to think “I must be the unluckiest kid in the world”, all while pretending to not see a group of homeless, naked children trudge through the frozen interstate to plead for money and food.
