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

    Adrift in Darkness and Doom

    Dave White’s Ghost Ship and Kiana Jimenez’s Night Ritual converge in a chilling meditation on death, solitude, and the unknown.

    Resilience Amid the Storm

    “Raging Sea” explores the turmoil of emotional storms and the fragile strength we cling to as we drift between despair and hope. This reflection on resilience, healing, and inner survival invites readers into the quiet battle beneath the waves—a journey of surrender, endurance, and rediscovering the will to rise again.

  • Faith Beyond Ethics

    Faith Beyond Ethics

    Søren Kierkegaard’s Fear and Trembling reframes Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice Isaac as the paradox of faith: ethically indefensible, yet religiously transcendent. This story speaks not only to philosophy but to the human heart. At Poetic Bipolar Mind, it echoes our search for meaning where anguish meets belief.
