Magpie 160- Don't be like them!

Faun, Horse, and Bird, 1936
Pablo Picasso
 

The faun and the horse were constantly fighting
Rearing and smacking and even biting
The lovely dove, a bird of peace 
Screamed "Stop it you two- let this chaos cease
Your behavior is useless and stupidly hostile 
You're acting like humans and that's just awful."
