once upon a time
there was a pig who spoke eight languages
and did sculpture with pieces of wood and rusted metal he found on his travels.
one day
he was out in the woods working on a new installation piece
and he met a family from a small town in Tennessee.
they had been walking for days.
the dad saw the pig and said, what are you doin' little piggie?
they were all quite surprised when the pig said,
"working with counterbalanced force using found objects."
they all stood around and looked at the piece for a long time.
no one said anything.
finally,
the dad shrugged and turned to the mom and said,
"i don't know much about art but i know what i like."
and then they killed the pig
and ate him.
