Thank you!!!
I would hurl words into this darkness and wait for an echo, and if an echo sounded, no matter how faintly, I would send other words to tell, to march, to fight, to create a sense of hunger for life that gnaws in us all.
~Richard Wright, American Hunger, 1977

Apparently when the moon looks bigger close to the horizon it's just an illusion:

Native Americans called the February moon the Hunger Moon as hunting was particularly challenging at this time of year.

I come among the peoples like a shadow.
I sit down by each man's side.
None sees me, but they look on one another,
And know that I am there.
My silence is like the silence of the tide
That buries the playground of children;
Like the deepening of frost in the slow night,
When birds are dead in the morning.
Armies trample, invade, destroy,
With guns roaring from earth and air.
I am more terrible than armies,
I am more feared than the cannon.
Kings and chancellors give commands;
I give no command to any;
But I am listened to more than kings
And more than passionate orators.
I unswear words, and undo deeds.
Naked things know me.
I am first and last to be felt of the living.
I am Hunger
~Poem by Robert Laurence Binyon
I got the inspiration for this photo from an amazing photographer, Ren Matsura. Please visit Ren's wonderful stream and see the original version of this look.
And since my Blue Phoenix has much better taste in music than I do...I asked him to pick the perfect song to accompany this photo. And of course, he did. Thank you, My Love. ISFLY ♥♥.

I hunger
Often
But rarely do I feast
More often I must content myself
With someone else's leftovers
At a time not of my choosing
Or worse
I starve
Starve and ache
I wrote that poem in my head last month, and because I was too lazy to find pen and paper, I wrote it into my SL profile picks instead. Since then, it's probably been making people wonder what the heck it's about, or why I wrote it!
I'm not going to answer those questions here, though. Sorry to leave people still wondering. But at least now that it's written down somewhere else, I can remove it from my picks!

Hungry Mungry sat at supper,
Took his knife and spoon and fork,
Ate a bowl of mushroom soup, ate a slice of roasted pork,
Ate a dozen stewed tomatoes, twenty-seven deviled eggs,
Fifteen shrimps, nine baked potatoes,
Thirty-two fried chicken legs,
A shank of lamb, a boiled ham,
Two bowls of grits, some black-eye peas,
Four chocolate shakes, eight angel cakes,
Nine custard pies with Muenster cheese,
Ten pots of tea, and after he,
Had eaten all that he was able,
He poured some broth on the tablecloth
And ate the kitchen table.
Part of a poem by Shel Silverstein

I take a lot of humming bird photo's, most are ok, but I think this one might be a little bit more special.

If I could be you
And you could be me
We’d see the hunger inside
And not the enemy
I heard this song for the first time last night and I can't get enough. I can't wait to dig into this group.

With hunger and thirst quenched, but still intrigued by the scent of perfume, and with everything else around me, I decided to walk towards the building I had seen when I arrived. I had seen the "Motel" sign and that meant there would be rooms with beds to sleep in. I really had to rest even if it was just one night. I was tired and feeling the effects of the "Mojito" (I exaggerated the amount of the Run lol), I managed to find the "Motel".
It was a slightly dilapidated building, with an architectural mix of a building from the old west movies, and with some similarities to certain tropical places I've been to throughout my travels around the world. But I didn't care what the building looked like, I just wanted to find a room that had a shower and not even a mattress mattered... The effects of the "Mojito" were getting stronger.
I noticed that there were rooms on the ground floor and the 1st floor, but unfortunately for me, the rooms on the ground floor had their doors locked... yes, they had beds... but I didn't feel good about myself if I had to I had to break down a door, so I looked for a way to get to the top floor, I discovered some access stairs... maybe I would have better luck finding a room upstairs.
To be continued...
