What's eating off of your plate tonight?
When we feed, we create an action intended to maintain a symbolic representation of who we think we are.
Feeding, or the manipulation of form from form, is the most primary level of expressing a need to exist as form.
Hunger can be a controlling force. When we get hungry enough, we’ll eat just about anything. It is difficult, if not impossible in this state, to pay attention to the potential threat posed by what we intend to consume. Makes one wonder if the benefit of consuming outweighs the risk.
Feeding and being fed upon is how this dimension rewinds and reminds itself that no one is fully in charge. What is at the top of the food chain may also be at the bottom.
Our minds tend to block out that which they can’t symbolize.
Let’s just imagine creatures, not symbolically labeled, invisible to our sensory awareness and beyond detection of our technology, that feed on matter so minute, it can only be categorized as thought energy.
Feeders like ourselves expecting to keep living in the form they are in, need to feed as we do upon the products or byproducts of the natural world. Things that feed on us may be doing so at a microscopic level. Just because these creatures are in another dimension, doesn’t mean they can’t possibly live off the natural or organic world.
