Hunger

As if a vortex of vacuum
swirls within the stomach,
it sucks in one's being with
patient urgency and
relentless persistence
until, one offers satiation-
hunger, the primal force
driving all life.
Hunger itself however,
is never hungry, needs nothing.
It is only the creator of 
that need which none can ignore.
It is only the fuel to fire
the embers which keep life
warm and pulsing.
If hunger creates this need,
then what creates hunger itself?
Hunger is born out of the need
which hunger itself creates.
It is a snake 
swallowing its own tail,
living as much as, it dies.
Hunger is that circle of need,
perpetually beginning
at the point where it ends.
