hollow, hungry people find food
scarce but reasons plentiful: drought,
pests, war, unemployment, injustice.
satisfied, well-fed folks find food
plentiful but gratitude scarce:
gluttons of greed, stingy to share.
aren’t we all famished for
the bread of heaven himself
to come fill us… more abundantly?
Gathering at dVerse poets pub where Lisa hosts hungry quadrilles…

Lynn, I see two extremes and the balancer in your 3 stanzas. Too many of us are famished these days, you are so right.
