Wonderful Summer

Summer of 2012.

Had my early obsessions, but no investments.

Heard my friends at the time

talk and screencap and joke about some weird show.

One day I got up and decided - with no real reason why -

that I'd give it a try.

Not much to do aside from being asleep.

Went through both seasons - took me only two weeks.

Get me some Flex Tape - I think my brain formed a leak.

Didn't fret the same with laugh lanes so deep.

Bo Peep gon' weep - didn't need her sheep to sleep anymore.

Rejuvenated - 110% Juice in the morn'.

Not stuck in the Backyard - I might be stuck online

watching this pone show and missin' my wind-chimes

and deadlines and fold-clothes and bed-times -

I no-showed and fed lies

to those Jones and led life

with a smile.

I guess I was a child

who needed some light

in a life rife with cynicism

missin' the kind

of mysticism and wonders delight

from a dumb show about a horse in the night -

of course set a course to ripen my mind.

Not the kind of guy to find this kinda stuff appealin',

'til I peeled my mind open and reached a new ceiling.

For days I was dazed - I was feign-blessed,

'till this thing came around - gave me a rain check.

No loud sounds, no cloud I was under -

sun's out, it's a wonderful summer.

Friends were pinpricks I didn't miss

'till I fell in - I was livin' it.

Formed cliques and I learned how to love 'em

'cause I flicked a vid that wonderful summer.

Always wanted to make stuff to wow others -

never had the means to mean more than a lover.

Now I've had a mass of crowds to be in front of.

I'm still proud of that wonderful summer.

This community planted the seeds in me - the ****s in me,

these needs to please in me.

Too fond to leave - too much to suffer:

the bond I weaved that wonderful summer.

Heard the music they were pumpin' out their orifices,

or I missed it - too many stolid stories were told in pictures,

told in tunes. Born a witness to this mystic-

-al addiction formed attuned. Been aboard a burning cruise or two

in this cornucopia storm amused.

This is my muse to abuse.

My flex to reflex.

Rode 【HORSE】 to the vertex - coursed coarse like a Blank Check

I could never make set 'cause my words felt worthless.

Now I've gone on a limb -

take Hoofy to the gym.

Not like some Eevee EV or Eevee CP or CP; like ZD's PP,

not missin' a smedium - spirit hard with no tedium;

pick on a Picard or Picardy - lightspeed when I'm beamin' 'em.

The BBs see me be the worst in fandom,

but then they be RCT3's first expansion.

Buddy boy, I'm blasting love like a cantrip - can't miss -

too much ish from this pilgrimage - can't skip.

No loud sounds, no cloud I was under -

sun's out, it's a wonderful summer.

Formed cliques and I learned how to love 'em

'cause I flicked a vid that wonderful summer.

Now I've had a mass of crowds to be in front of.

I'm still proud of that wonderful summer.

Too fond to leave - too much to suffer:

the bond I weaved that wonderful summer.

It's been 7 years for me.

That's a massive chunk of my life that's set in stone forever.

No matter how much I lose interest,

no matter how much I may move away,

this community and this identity will always have its place in me.

P@D. Hoofy.

Have a good night.
