Pinkie Pie loves making ponies smile. She loves making them laugh too. It's wonderful.
Then she met something silly.
Submission to the Pony Poetry Contest.
NOTE: This is Spoken Word poetry.
TW: Depression
I haven't written an experimental piece with poetry in it since Drink (2017). The fact that this is all poetry is even harder, so take this what you will.
Still love this one,
also BOOST, otherwise I wouldn't be so quick to offer the enticement, eh?Sometimes you're just a lil' silly, y'know
Even when it's not funny
Didn’t think the style would appeal to me, but I quite enjoyed this. Hoping for the scuffed reading of this.
This all could have been avoided if they just gave her a snickers. She’s not her when she’s hungry :(
what a legendary authors note

I am glad that I asked you for help with this and that you offered to do the audio reading. Hopefully we get there so that other people can witness cratorade!

Happy you enjoyed the poetry! Deployed a whole new way for me to structure this and I think it did well although curse Fimfic for not allowing me to tab words over.

You're not you when you're hungry... for silliness.

Had to spread the truth and expose 6-D.

Thank you
I'm glad that you enjoyed it and are not upset that you got exposed for nibbling in 4k.
All this ‘Silly’ talk made me think about my story’s MC.
I imagine most MLP characters with enough depth to have flaws could have something similar to this for them.
Pinky’s one of the hardest characters to write for, I think; but she’s a lot deeper than, ‘that’s just Pinkie, don’t question it.’ 👍 That’s not including her family issues…
Good job, Soaring. I’m not great with poetry. Tried some Hearth’s Warming songs for Christmas two years ago, but like almost all my other stuff it got rejected by the moderators -no narrative purpose.
Didn't expect six chapters, sweet Celestia's shining suns....
i love pretzels to.
wowie!
so
I just struck out of nowhere? Or was it because she only valued herself in what she could do for others? Or was it once it struck, she couldn't do anything for others, and boom, no self value. or just something else.
This hit home in several unpleasant ways...
Pretzel gang rise up.
Damn to tell a compelling story through poetry takes skill and you pulled it off while make it relatable to so many people. Bravo!
Good job 👌
