Would you look at that, a new poem at last. And a rather peculiar one, at least to some of you, but quite hillarious and yet thought-provoking for the rest.
Poem penned for poignant ponies, past and present,
Who dread disasterous Discord’s day being due;
For raw reality, so opalescent
And murky, mostly masking false and true;
For camaraderie, post sun and crescent,
That bravely brazes, bidding binds adieu;
For Discord’s doom, and Harmony now present―
I, with my mere man’s mind, present to you.
And now, for fillies future and colts to come:
Lo! Legends lie low, lost within your mind,
They slowly slip from harmony you know;
So idly to ideals you succumb,
That may another hit they never find―
And make absurd vile, violent shameful show.

Yes, I am a ‘Brony’ now. I’ve watched every episode aired so far. I find MLP:FIM an excellent show, and so do some of the brightest people I know. I find it good enough to forgive Canada for Justin Bieber.
(But to be perfectly honest, aside from the excellent writing and animation and the adult-oriented jokes, what really gripped me on the most fundamental emotional level was how Twilight moves around in the hot air balloon in the opening sequence; it reminded me of my late Persephone, whom I shall always love and miss.)
Unum diem...
