Dig a Pony Lyrics
Beatles Fans attribute this song to Ono even though John personally said that it is just "gibberish". I mean, if it was indeed about Ono, he would've said so? And if it is about Paul with a heavily implied adoration in the lyrics, John wouldn't/couldn't.

My interpretations are in bold and of course, it could be wrong. (Look away now)

John Lennon at his best. A love song that reads like poetry: you can celebrate, penetrate, radiate, imitate, indicate, syndicate.

I told you so, all I want is you!
Everything has got to be just like you want it to

I found Theodore Horatio McLennon!
Tumblr media
Readers of CARRY THAT WEIGHT (BOOKS I & II) have asked for a picture of Theodore, the Teddy Bear that John gives Paul, and that George buys tweedy clothes for (because he was upset by the "nekkid little bear") have asked to see what Theodore looks like. Here he is. Found him in a Signal's catalogue. Now you know. Isn't he a cutie? He's smaller than I had imagined, but very, very soft and huggy.

Very fun that the end episode of the lyrics is just Paul Muldoon’s literary thesis on the end. Them talking about golden slumbers seriously got me crying… like what a beautiful song… one of my favorites …The way he sings it is one of his top vocal performances I think.
But then also…. Get me laughing when he said “blackbird was in BOSS BABY” LMAO
I like that at first paul was like er NO it’s not for the Beatles … but then he went… well …maybe … 😒. This honestly tells me that he really doesn’t know meaning we always think he’s just obfuscating (which he does do sometimes) but actually sometimes he really doesn’t know.
him talking about original sin got me thinking some other thoughts about what he was afraid of… anyway…
Whenever I think of The End I think of when George quoted “the love you take is equal to the love you make” almost as scripture and I honestly think that’s the highest compliment he’s ever paid Paul.

Abbey Road side 1, John, wailing:
She’s so heavy
Abbey Road side 2, Paul, getting everyone to sing along:
Boy, you’re gonna carry that weight a long time

Chapter 6: Two (Psychosexual) Princes of Wales
Tumblr media
Oh gosh.... so here it is .... 7,000 words of irredeemable slash and smut. Because I teased you with it in Chapter 5, so here it is. The filthiest thing I've ever written and I blushed the whole time I wrote it, but it has a purpose -- to portray the psycho-sexual side of these characters. I know we have spent a lot of time in Book III exploring the background on the sexuality stuff. Now that I have gotten that off my chest, we can get on with the story which will be picking up in late May/early June of 1966.
July will see the return of John Dawson and also bring up a rather startling revelation, with some secrets revealed about the deeper origins of the McLennon relationship.
Then August and the final US Tour -- some very dramatic stuff, there.
We're almost done, people! Thanks for bearing with me and I hope this is slashy enough for all of you who wanted slash, and not too much for other readers! You can find chapter six at A03.
