Riddles in the Light

I swim,
But no fish am I.
I fly,
But no bird am I.
You feed me food,
But poison to you my food is.
My parents are your kin,
But bound to destroy your kin am I.
What am I?

Is it contamination/pollution?
@Benjamin: That’s an insightful answer, and it’s almost correct. But we’re looking for something more “physical” rather than conceptual this time. Something more “like an object.”
Garbage? Excrement?
Does it fly?
uhmm
is it an animal?
plant?
clue please!
this riddle is so intriguing
my wild guess is cancer !
hehe
Well, it’s not a plant or animal. It’s not a disease either
It is an object, like I said. And it flies, swims and does all the things mentioned.
A virus?
A virus is not an animal, I think, however is not an object as in man-made product.
An explosive missile?
A missile launched from the sea swims and flies. We feed it with explosives (or we are the mass it burns), but it is poison for us. Men are its parents and it was built to destroy men.
@Benjamin, you got it
Cheers mate!
Oh that’s brilliant Benjamin! I was thinking about pollution too but then was stumped by the last line about its parents being our kin.
