Butterflys didn't fare much better

The second floor was full of stained glass like windows with butterfly wings shimmering in azure blue and amber , in perfect symetry. Stunning, but what did the butterflies have to say.
"Well, now that you are asking we would rather have our bodies back and fly around the fields thank you very much, than be impaled up here but it is a bit late for that now. I am glad you appreciate our jigsaw puzzle of wings but really we all think balloon butterflies would be just as nice and hurry up and suggest it before more of us end up behind glass frames."

I thought as much - no one wants to be an art piece no matter how many millions you are worth. Freedom is everything. Those of us not currently impaled and stuck behind a frame or lodged in a gold vitrine, spare a thought for these sad creatures and appreciate your freedom. If you see Damien Hirst walking towards you - Run as who knows what he will do next.
