A Lightness of Hunger

is
what
what is...
what is what
is what is now...now...
all the whens and the might have beens...
a captivating time space wonderland called...the now...
a stability without hunger to consume and fill all from an emptiness void

thanks M.L...we fill the now with so much that it's difficult to know what 'now' is
