    Read my Poem “Sit Down” Published by the Mourning Paper

    I recently had my poem “Sit Down” published by the Mourning Paper.

    They are a gothic, dark literary magazine that releases a variety of work from various writers. They have lifestyle, literature, and poetry, which is where I factor into this equation.

    The poem that was published was called “Sit Down” and it is most certainly a horror poem. It is about a little girl ghost who imprisons families at a dinner table inside the house she used to live in. Recently, I’ve been exploring the concept of ghosts and the dead having motivation for their hauntings. I have been trying to experiment with the human reasons these nonhuman entities might have. I just never liked the idea of ghosts being mindless or emotionless plot devices in media.

    You can read “Sit Down” on the Mourning Paper right here.

    As always, with these posts about publications I highly suggest you read the rest of the material this fine publication has to offer. I don’t want to just promote these places because they published me or support literary horror. Too many literary magazines like the Mourning Paper are undervalued, and I don’t want them to vanish into obscurity. As I submit my work to many different lit magazines I see them vanishing into nothingness fairly often.

    So please explore and support the Mourning Paper here.

    Thank you for reading my work and have an amazing day!

  8. ✨ Staying the Night
    by Crissy Bliss Addams

    Petals fall, stars endure.
    Both whisper, soft and sure:
    beauty remains, even after loss.
    Hope still shines, no matter the cost.

    My words are constellations,
    woven through quiet revelations.
    Each one, a seed of love,
    scattered like starlight above.

    Because love is not flawless light.
    It’s the courage to stay through night.
    To hold when storms refuse to cease,
    to offer presence,
    to offer peace.

    Love walks with us through shadowed skies.
    It sees strength where brokenness lies.
    It chooses again—through struggle, through pain.
    A promise to grow,
    a promise to remain.

    Guiding hearts toward brighter skies,
    where grief transforms,
    and courage flies.
    Reminding us through night’s embrace
    that healing blooms,
    and light finds space.

    This is love.
    This is endurance.
    This is the cosmos…
    inside us all.

  10. i started making notes of lines around today's #mastoprompt #Elephant, and I accidentally wrote a sonnet...which has nothing to do with Elephants, other than perhaps the word 'memories.'

    Not enough characters to write the sonnet here, so the text is in the alt text, of the screenshot of the sonnet, taken from my RedNoteBook

    'A Distant Memory'

  11. Innocent eyes discovered our peers
    When friendship meant sharing, a wall
    On detention - No talking!
    Stifled sniggers, and snorts
    Skiving after lunch
    Wanna drag?
    Innocence
    Was soon
    Lost

  12. Trace the back of the man made serpent
    Pock marked, black and weather beaten
    It cuts right through the mountains
    Chokes the life from the fields
    Has no need for trees
    Crushes flowers
    Tramples weeds
    Its needs -
    Wheels

  13. We watched people pulsating to the beat
    Hot exhausted bodies jounce together
    Sweatily, bumping and grinding
    As if fighting to break free
    From artificial thoughts
    Fed into their minds
    As they waited
    To enter
    The night
    Club
