Hardly

Hardly any craving is for necessity but rather towards desire 
Hardly any desire satisfies but at least it gratifies 
Hardly any gratification lasts, only fleeting 
Hardly any fleeting brings joy but a flare
Hardly any flare can light or warm but catches the eye
Hardly any eye resists the momentary but soon forgets
Hardly any forgotten is remembered but remains as if never known
