Dali Paints Exploding Head

Six years after the atomic bomb Plunked down in Hiroshima Tearing people into pieces Dali was still losing sleep over it He begins to collect strips and struts Developing a surreal idea of what he is about Collects arrowheads, wire, bits of bone. Defers from his usual style Puts together Raphaelesque Head Exploding A tiny canvas with a large message Showing his disdain for atomic bombs And the barbaric aftermaths
