this mushroom appears to fuse its stalks
assuming a common bulb

ample evidence exists
in its cleft foot
and seperate stipe
we are dealing with two individuals

one cap is glabrous
the other scaly

on this one hangs a universal veil
this stalk is pubescent

(which one is toxic?)

while of the same genus
the species is variable

mycrophagists engage at risk
