//------------------------------// // A Normal Poem About a Normal Pony // Story: Bugs, Fluff and Other Stuff // by Silent Whisper //------------------------------// I am a pony, you see Quite a normal one, at that Nopony notices me, and sometimes That's good, my friends That's good For it's a good thing to be Someone who won't stand out in the crowd Since nopony looks twice, so really That's good, my dears That's good Someday I dream of rising Above the heads of those blinded Those who close their eyes and think That's good, to be ignorant That's good They didn't think to look closer And really, why would they? Nopony stares too closely at other ponies's shadows That's good, for me That's good When I stand above their world Their bones adorning her ashen crown They'll weep and beg and wail, and see the truth That's good, wee subjects That's good No venom on my part is needed The real toxin festered in their hearts Long before I arrived That's good, you see That's good Apathy's the real killer, not I For I'll wait til the moment you succumb to it's lull And I'll welcome you into my jaws That's good, sweet prey That's good But for now you'll prance and sing The average pony more a monster than you think Yet you care not what awaits you That's good, young ponies That's good But I'm just a pony, hiveless, holeless Look closer, don't I look just like you now? Come closer, sweet child, and find out So good, little one Mm… So good
