Rainbow Factory - A Poem - Part 2
Rainbow Factory - A Poem
By dashie76
Although I did not write the original Rainbow Factory, the plot of this poem is my own.
It's finally happened. We're over. We're done.
The Factory's workers have stolen the sun.
They riled up their unicorns yesterday
and stole the celestial body away
They have broken out comrades locked under key
And rallied up several outlawed refugees
They've gathered an army. They've started a war
They've slaughtered nine thousand. They're spreading the gore
They came, of course, to me to ask
If I would join their horrible task
I said that I had reformed, which was true
And when they attacked, away I flew
I saw the wrongdoing of my ways
But still, the age-old guilt remains
That I was once leading the Factory
Was causing this sort of catastrophe
Celestia is done, she is captured, you see
They're planning to execute her publicly
In front of all of the ponies to grieve
And watch their beloved princess leave
They stormed Canterlot with a battle cry-
"Long live the Factory! All shall die!
No parent or child remains alive!
A new age is coming! The time is nigh!
Canterolt falls to our supremacy!
And we'll make a new Rainbow Factory!
But this one will be on a larger scale!
And all of Equestria to us will hail!"
They plan to convert the great city
Into a new Rainbow Factory
And spread sinful rainbows across the land
I cannot allow it. But I have a plan
Five friends of mine very close to my heart
I brought together and we're going to start
The biggest rebellion that we've ever had
We might not make it. And though it'd be sad
As long as we get the job done together
And save our land Equestria forever
As long as I get my chance to repent
We can die in peace, and I'll be content.

Although I did not write the original Rainbow factory, the plot of this poem is my own.
We've finally done it...it's over...we've won...
The rebellion got back...the beautiful sun...
My friends have told me...that they would make sure...
My name would go down...in historical lore...
The mare with the apples...said once every year...
When...the cider...season was near...
She'd always put aside...one mug to remember...
The way that I loved it...and for that, I thanked her...
The animal lover...said my memory would live on...
That she'd give other pegasi...a project to work on...
A statue of cloud...commemorating me...
Proclaiming my bravery for all to see...
The pink one could barely stop crying to say...
That her gift to me was one for my birthday...
Once every year...on its...anniversary...
She would throw the "biggest, most bestest party..."
The dressmaker said...that she'd stitch me a flag...
A sheet of honor...a bravery rag...
She'd hang it on top of...the mayor's abode...
So all could see...the rainbow she sewed...
And finally...the bookish...unicorn explained...
That never again...would evil reign...
That she'd make the next artificial rainbows...
The best ones of all...that shined and glowed...
Alas...now...the time is nigh...
For me to pass on...for me to die...
To Pony Heaven...and the joy it brings...
Alas...I still regret...many things...
Leading the army...I just now beat...
Being vain...with boastful flying feats...
But most of all...making my friends...
Stay with me...till the bitter end...
And now...the light...comes...for...me...
Black dots...at the edge... of my vision...I see...
Just one...last...thing...to say with a sigh...
Thank you...for hearing...my story...
Good Bye.
Rainbow Factory - A Poem
By dashie76
I do not own Rainbow Factory. This is a fan made work.
Come, young child, and you will hear
A tale of woe and murder and fear
A horrible government conspiracy
A lab: The Rainbow Factory
You see, there's a test, a flying test
Young flyers compete to see who's the best
Those who fail, with bad flying gaits
For them, a terrible fate awaits
You see, way back when, 'fore Nightmare came
The sun and rainbows Celestia gave
But after the massive Nightmare scare
The moon was left in Celestia's care
But she couldn't handle that kind of excess
She still had to act as royal princess
Now, only two things could be used by her
She thought, and thought, until she was sure
Rainbows they'd have to do without
For the sun and the moon had to stay on their route
But the unicorns took on the rainbows themselves
They experimented with hundreds of spells
They finally made artificial rainbows
They weren't as good, but their color still glowed
Until a group of insane pegasi
Found another solution and managed to lie
To the entire land 'bout what they might see
Inside the Rainbow Factory
Not a well-oiled machine that shines and glows
But one spattered with blood that creaks and groans
For the pegasi needed special ingredient
To get all the different colors and gradients
What is this substance of need, you ask?
Live pegasi children are used, but alas
Nopony had found out this secret yet
And if one fails the exam, they should get
A one-way ticket out of the country
Instead, they are shipped to the Factory
Where ribs are smashed and ponies are dropped
Into a gigantic metal pot
Where bodies are broken and shattered and torn
And once the children's bodies are scoured
Of every last bit of color found
The cogs begin to grind and pound
The remnants are burned, all clues are erased
So the horrible deed might have never took place
In the Factory, such blood was shed
At least, that's what my grandfather said
But sometimes, faintly, you might just hear
The grind of levers, the screams of fear
The splash of blood on linoleum floor
The cries of agony, terror, and gore
And I think that maybe Celestia missed
A few murderous workers who fell off the list
Of pegasus ponies to kill that day
When Celestia went to make them pay
Now, some say because I am tired and old
My brain is rotted and turning to mold
But heed this warning, young child I met
The Factory is not over yet.
