Beat This Pink Beatle Butterfly R I P

Imagine a Wall

Hidden away from plain sight

Somewhere down a side back alley

An aspiring art student one day

Choose upon this to paint

As in a dream a this vision he had seen

The previous night time before sleep came 

A mosaic of pink beatles 

Which spelled out the word

PEACE

With 1 red balloon string attached

And a single white dove

On each opposing side above 

And in time come to pass the word got out

And people came to see it

Unfortunately though when enquiring minds

Duly asked what it's actual true meaning was

He had to admit he himself didn't have

The faintest idea or clue either 

It was merely a vision from his dream

Now pink is just a color

Beatles are bugs

And both balloons and doves fly away 

And Peace in itself is merely a word

Just a dream and a vision of death perhaps

And sneak preview of the after life 

R . I . P
