The Warrior’s Pen

White, Dave. Tattooed Pig. June 21. 2024, Dave White Illustrations.

In case no one sees it,

I weave my words where prayers don’t fit.

My excerpts hold more than whispered pleas,

Spilling my troubles like falling seas.

I write longer than I bow in despair,

Each stroke a wound, each line a repair.

I memorize every shame I’ve known,

Etching them deep like marks on stone.

The same sharp tones that broke my bones,

The echoes of insults, degrading moans—

I capture them all in ink and fight,

With nothing but my pen to ignite.

My fingertips are my armor and sword,

Wielding the truth where silence is stored.

Though sure of my words, I doubt my worth,

Their voices haunt me, their shadows unearth.

They strip my courage, tear me apart,

Turning my sanity into shards of art.

Yet still, I remain, bold and unbroken,

Writing the truths they wish were unspoken.

Each letter a battle, each page a stand,

Till my ink runs dry and trembles my hand.

For a writer is a warrior, fierce and free,

Fighting through words for eternity.

    Beyond Right and Wrong

    This exploration of ethical theories—spanning subjectivism, utilitarianism, divine command, and beyond—connects philosophy to lived experience.

On Poetic Bipolar Mind, ethics becomes more than theory; it becomes a language for art, healing, and human dignity.

  • The Price of Survival

    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

    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.
