The Lennon Wall was an ordinary historic wall in Prague, but since the 1980s, people have filled it with John Lennon-inspired graffiti and pieces of lyrics from Beatles songs. In 1988 the wall was a source of irritation for the then communist regime of Gustav Husak. Young Czechs would write grievances on the wall and in a report of the time this led to a clash between hundreds of students and security police on the nearby Charles Bridge. The movement these students followed was described ironically as Lennonism and Czech authorities described these people variously as alcoholics, mentally deranged, sociopathic, and agents of Western capitalism. The wall continuously undergoes change and the original portrait of Lennon is long lost under layers of new paints. Even when the wall was re-painted by some authorities, on the second day it was again full of poems and flowers. Today, the wall represents a symbol of youth ideals such as love and peace. The picture above is inspired by Lennon's song Imagine
Imagine there's no heaven, It's easy if you try, No hell below us, Above us only sky.
Imagine all the people, Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do, Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion too.
Imagine all the people, Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can, No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man.
Imagine all the people, Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one |

"There's one rule that applies to everyone, from the time they're born until they die. People don't change. Maybe slightly but never deeply. We are what we are, i guess." |
