A simple and \it innocent modification of Poisson's equation leads to a modified Newtonnian theory of gravitation where a localized and \it positive energy density of the gravitational field contributes to its own source. The result is that the total \it active gravitational mass of a compact object is the sum of its \it proper mass and an \it evanescent gravitational mass which is a mass equivalent to the gravitational energy.
