What’s wrong with y’all
You think you are too old or too good for cartoons or something?
y’all think you’re too good
Sipping on that cold juice
That long time, old ass haterade
You think I don’t see the problem
An adult that likes old cartoons?
New cartoons?
Silly and strange flash ones?
short little YouTube animated memes?
I get it, but
Y’all judge
Y’all hate on me
I can’t stop me though.
My Creaky Leaky Squeaky
Was too colorful
And a bit too loud
It’s about a glittery fluttery butterfly
Man and a wormy guy, way too
Weird, amirite???
What’s up with y’all
I feel like y’all grew out of the wonders of animation
Like how it’s so sad and deep and truly unique
But still bouncy and bursting with lovely, lively atmosphere and colors you taste and feel and smell,
With characters that move you to feel again
And understand mortality
Like a child
With adult eyes,
Again, I’ll repeat
What is up with y’all?
Take a chill pill
And sit down
And watch this damn cartoon,
It’s only an hour and twenty three minutes.

Last waking breath
My darling Jane, To my last waking breath, to my last pumping, palpable heartbeat, I beseech you to respond. My heart aches and pains for you. Ever since that day we parted, due to my mad and dark ward upstairs, my dark raven, the severing cause that tears you from me, I’ve known nothing but agony.

I still love bugs bunny and the coyote and roadrunner. Yeah, I'm old. Love your poem. I was smiling all the ways through.
I for one love your bright and bouncy characters that leap right off the page into reader's hearts.
That was fun , the irony about cartoons as they look so simple but require a lot mork work than using real actors
Omgggg, I love cartoons!!!! I don't get how can someone outgrow cartoons! It's completely absurd. Btw, have you heard of Happy Tree Friends? You should check that out. It's dark, lol!
Ha! Love it! 😁
Splendid!!! Loving it!!!
Luv this and I totally agree, like, who doesn't like cartoons?! I live for Looney Tunes and all the rest, Hanna Barbera, Disney, Ren and Stimpy, mostly the oldies
