An artless impulse moved Andre to scribble on a rock.
For that he has been vilified and made an awful gawk.
No one knew his folly, not until this little lamb
Posted it for all to view upon his Instagram.
Haled into court of law, Saraiva glumly stood accused
of raping Nature in the Raw and leaving it all bruised.
He paid a modest fine and left, defiant and unbowed;
Ignoring taunts and insults from the hiker’s roiling crowd.
But finally his conscience, or what passes for one now,
Made him change his heart and mind and brassy Gallic brow.
“Graffiti should be sprayed on man-made items” he decreed.
“I’ll never raise my brush against another stone or weed!”
