while tending his Flock

The pigs were restless, and  in the long months he had been been tending these swine in the mountains alone, Ummah had learned that there were only two things that really made a pig crawl up out of its own filth and take notice - food and danger.

He rose slowly and turned to see what his jambonistas were snorting at, then had to raise his hand to cover his eyes at the fiery glow across the meadow.

"I have come to you, Ummah, with a message from your Heavenly father" said a voice as big as the mountain.

"You're scaring my pigs, mister" said Ummah "and my earthly father sets great store by them. Think maybe you could dim your brights?"
