marilynmonroe

#art #history: my fave story about marilyn monroe is how she used to pay for pigeons' freedom rather than see them gathered up from a NYC park to be killed & served in the city's restaurants.
on the 100th anniversary of her birth, i've given norma jean an eternal bird friend who surely recognises the depths & dimensions of MM's personality that most people ignored whilst she was alive.
