starving is different from hungry

hungry will be a good thing if I end up on El volcán Popo near Mexico City

Because I’m fleeing climate change

and as I wander the wildernesses

I need to be hungry

that I might discover this and that to eat

which is done by having acute smelling ability

and tasting for safety

and smelling good water

or suckable plant juices
