LOOK AT THE BUTTERFLY
LOOK AT THE BUTTERFLY
He is looking at a butterfly
that isn't there.
He is looking at a butterfly
that isn't there because
I have told him to
look at the butterfly.
And because I am
his big brother
he trusts me
that there will be
a butterfly.
The camera goes click.
Captures my brother
and the famous butterfly
that was never there.
"Did you see it...did you see it!"
"Yes...yes I saw it!"
Now at your dying
I call to you
"Look at the butterfly Brian...
look at the butterfly!"
