146 – Looking From The Outside

28 April 202228 April 2022 ~ Bizarre Bard ~ Leave a comment

Sympathy is when you understand What they're feeling Empathy is when you feel What they're feeling; If someone is hurt & you feel sad You're not experiencing empathy All you're doing is experiencing Mutual sympathy - that is You know what they're feeling Because you've experienced it too & you know how much it hurts, … Continue reading 146 – Looking From The Outside

65 – Rusty Bucket Heart

6 March 202210 May 2022 ~ Bizarre Bard ~ Leave a comment

I wish I could tip & pour out my tears To water parched seeds But for some reason Only an earthquake Can shatter & shake My damn dam of feeling Such an odd feeling - So full of tears, yet No reason to cry - Almost wish for one; These tears - they are so … Continue reading 65 – Rusty Bucket Heart

22 – New Towers; Old Bridges

23 January 202219 September 2022 ~ Bizarre Bard ~ 1 Comment

New towers are built Across old bridges; New people are found Inside old friends; Your journey may be a circle, yet Start and finish are not the same Regardless of feeling so familiar Regardless of my story so similar https://open.spotify.com/track/1iQ5E4z6CJ38dIzvMI9Wdo?si=zoxcaD_GSNKMsJbRmfywKg&utm_source=copy-link https://open.spotify.com/track/23qpfRkkOK4IrbVxIHQQIC?si=2iNrlcHiQUSK0Xp7J1AuQg&utm_source=copy-link

Mr. Puzzler’s Elevator Pitch

3 January 20225 October 2022 ~ Bizarre Bard ~ Leave a comment

Neither my words Nor my cadence Have much finesse But somehow these Genius wordsmiths I still impress I've said before: "I'm not that eccentric Or super smart, so My thoughts are not Especially special; They already know" And so if it is not My cadence, my thoughts Nor my words It must be how I … Continue reading Mr. Puzzler’s Elevator Pitch

Mr. Puzzler

2 January 202223 January 2024 ~ Bizarre Bard ~ Leave a comment

"Mr. Puzzler - what sets you apart from the rest?" If I'm honest, I'm not very great at anything. Passable at nearly everything. Normally just good enough to not be noticed. I'm not the smartest one of us; I for sure played a role in dropping out. And I'm not anything special at writing. I'm … Continue reading Mr. Puzzler

Hiii. I've been thinking about how to respond to your original text. I know this probably isn't the response you're hoping for, but I am always really impressed by people that can use the most perfect analogies on the spot. My mind so does not work like that, and I wish that it did. So … Continue reading A Short Conversation: Thought Process, Feelings, and Art

A Meditation: Are There Good And Bad Feelings?

8 August 20209 August 2020 ~ Bizarre Bard ~ 1 Comment

Question that inspired this meditation: Why do bad things happen? Because we want to know what it feels like. Life exists to experience all it has to offer. All feelings are good. What we confuse as negative, bad, or painful feelings, are really just feelings from a part of the spectrum that we're not used … Continue reading A Meditation: Are There Good And Bad Feelings?
