and unlike french or spanish or whatever you start
learning in fourt grade, this one you're born with,
and eventually lose. Everyone under the age of
seven is fluent in ifspeak; go hand around someone
under three feet tall and you'll see. What if
a giant funnelweb spider crawled out of that
hole over your head, and bit you on the neck?
What if the only antidote for venom was locked
up in a vault on the top of a montain? What if
you lived through the bite, but could only move
your eyelids and blink out an alphabet? It
doesn't really matter how far you go; the point
is that it's a world of possibility. Kids think
with their brains cracked wide open; becoming
an adult, I'e decided is only a slow sewing shut.
