Self-Worth

White, Dave. Sell Yourself. July 1, 2024, Dave White Illustrations.

Lately, I feel worthless.
I needed to find some value in me,
So I sold what I had
For little a fee.

My eyes for a penny
I sold to some fools,
They’re blind and useless,
Mistook for jewels.

My lips for a nickel
To the sweetest sin,
So they’ll know the love
That has never been.

My ears for a dime
I sold to a lover.
To hear sweet nothings,
And silence uncover.

My hands for a quarter
I sold to a ghost,
So that she might feel
What I’ve wanted the most.

Finally my bones for a dollar
I sold to the earth,
But as for my soul-
There was found no worth.

    Anyone tried aaajili2 yet? Saw some ads for it. Looks like a decent enough platform, but I always try things out myself first before committing. Let me know what you think. aaajili2

    Heard about the 18jlappdownload app. Supposedly, it’s got a good range of features but do your research before downloading anything, yeah? Just saying. 18jlappdownload

    The Price of Survival

    Jonathan Swift’s A Modest Proposal exposed a world already devouring its poor. Centuries later, the feast continues—more civilized, more hidden, but no less cruel. The Price of Survival reflects on satire, power, and the grotesque truths we live, turning grief and silence into resistance through the act of writing.

    Rage, Acceptance, and the Light

    Dylan Thomas’s Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night demands defiance against death, yet it raises a paradox: is it better to rage or to accept? This reflection explores Thomas’s urgency, the ethics of resistance, and how Poetic Bipolar Mind embodies both rebellion and peace in the face of mortality.

  • Binds

    Binds

    Ice burns through the chest, freedom becomes a cruel illusion, and binds linger even when the shackles are gone. Binds captures the ache of emptiness, the weight of choices, and the haunting question of whether escape truly exists. Yet, amidst despair, hope flickers faintly in the mist.
