What is the Bard? A clown, a jester, a fool? The Bard is the one who writes The one who plays The one who mocks A Bard guides a pen upon a page And empires fall Laughter weakens Mockery decays And London Bridge falls down with a song A white lie here An exaggeration there The truth becomes muddled Not missing Worse Misinformation A blank mind has more walls Than one which believes a half-truth The foot in the door, the door in the face Always with a wry smile It takes a sense of humor to be a Bard Even as your pen draws blood #Poetry #TheBardsTexts #DarkAcademia #Sepulchral #BallAndChain #Babelcore #Brooding #Funereal #StrangledMetaphors #Melancholy #ToShineABurningLight #Disconsolate #RequiresAnEnglishDegree #WarlockEnergy #Plutonian #Deinspirational #DarkerThanDark #Plutonian
