Favorite Quote:
&quot;Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow?&quot;<br /> -Andrew Ryan, Bioshock


Rustle-root truffle finder,

Sniffing indignantly amongst the old souls.

What right has he to interfere with those;

Spiritual things,

Too much for him to understand.

 

But the great pink rooter sees little of what is unseeable;

But senses much.

An old sense seizes him,

but not one that our grand old earth has ever lost.

It guides him to his final destination;

A tree root rich with truffles,

born from the flesh of old souls.

Pigs don't seem to care much about metaphysics, as far as I have observed.
