The Last Dreams of Pony Island

Murder!
That's what comes
of all this mingling:
Mayhem,
miscegenation,
and murder!

You turn your back
for just one day
and some idiot sailor
is kissing a kelpie,
then before you can
shame him back home,
she pulls a pony into the sea!

Oh, of course I knew
she would be trouble
long before Majority said so;
it's a big, big world,
with a thousand races
who just don't understand
our cherished pony values.
Why, didn't you hear
that two days before
Peridot was drowned,
a group of tuft-ears
all but assaulted her
down at the common-house?

If you ask me,
they're all in on it together.
The Guard should throw the whole lot
straight into the stocks,
not that they ever will,
not after hiring one of them
to keep the others pacified.
And now they sit on their hooves
as Mooken scale the walls
and kelpies pull upstanding citizens
straight into the bay!
What do we even pay taxes for?
Why isn't that layabout Sunspot
being held to account!

Everything would be different
if we'd just stayed in Equestria,
but we're so far from Everfree
that we can't even celebrate
sunrise and moonrise
when the Princesses awake.
I've a mind to leave
on the very next boat,
and leave Myinnkyun
to the savages and tuft-ears!
