john laurens vibes!

are you normal or did you read a poem about how it's better for an athlete to die young with glory and immediately go "omg this is so john laurens' legacy and him never having the chance to be corrupted by politics or any future mistakes/failures!"

The time you won your town the race We chaired you through the market-place; Man and boy stood cheering by, And home we brought you shoulder-high. Today the road all runners come, Shoulder-high we bring you home, And set you at your threshold down, Townsman of a stiller town. Smart lad, to slip betimes away From fields where glory does not stay, And early though the laurel grows It withers quicker than the rose. Eyes the shady night has shut Cannot see the record cut, And silence sounds no worse than cheers After earth has stopped the ears. Now you will not swell the rout Of lads that wore their honours out, Runners whom renown outran And the name died before the man. Excerpt from "To an Athlete Dying Young" by A.E. Houseman

When I First Searched That I Meant Rank But Looking Back It Absolutely Looks Like I'm Asking How Much

When I first searched that I meant rank but looking back it absolutely looks like I'm asking how much John Laurens was smoking....

Oh yeah, I still draw sometimes, so here's the gang

Oh Yeah, I Still Draw Sometimes, So Here's The Gang
Oh Yeah, I Still Draw Sometimes, So Here's The Gang

I also tried drawing laffy, but that didn't go well so I evidently gave up.
