OK, I'm gonna try this again. I see that these things called "HTML"
and "plain text" have jumbled up my mumble. Here goes again. I hope the
format is intact.

THE FUNGUS AMONG US

Destitute of the 'phyll for life
Choice? None but a saprophyte
Be you a single cell, mycelium or
A system of entangled hyphae
Parasite! But what else be you?


Spongy morbid granulations
Live how else? A proud flesh of wounds
Amongst your fellow thallophytes
You are none but the spong
Sphongos be you do better absorb the plunge.


The molds, the mildews, the rusts, the smuts
Puff balls or toadstools. Oh! whata parasite!
Only on animal flesh, where else to survive?
Thee fungi no awe! You are low down there!

"MAN MAA LEN JEPPI!"
