White, Dave. Ghostship. July 1, 2024, Dave White Illustrations.
Around, all around, the storm clouds gather.
My dread grows as the stroke of death falls against my naked soul.
It crushes me, and darkly my essence drips to the cold, uncaring tombstones.
In abject fear, I begged for forgiveness, while death loomed over me.
Now alone, my soul falls upon darkened eyes.
This is my doom.

Dave White’s Self-Growth and Kiana Jimenez’s I Am Your Disease confront the brutal reality of healing. Where the poem gives voice to addiction and inner destruction, the illustration reveals growth as resistance—messy, painful, and defiant. Together, they show that becoming whole means facing the shadow, not pretending it was never there.
Inadequate is a raw and unflinching reflection on self-worth, trauma, and the long road to healing. Through visceral honesty and poetic defiance, it voices the battle between doubt and resilience—the journey of reclaiming one’s power from pain, transforming “I am not enough” into a quiet, steadfast truth: I am.
A heartfelt reflection on love that could have been, If Fate Were Kinder captures the quiet ache of what never came to pass. Through tender imagery and longing words, it paints a portrait of two souls separated by circumstance, yet forever entwined by memory, desire, and the echo of possibility.
