Meet the Author!

First post, wooo!!! =D

Hey friends, it's Risa from what is now chaosonwheels! I made this blog as a dreamwidth specific place to post just about my writing journey! I'll be carrying posts over from my other account, and my writing tumblr, so sit tight while I get situated. The first original update will be tomorrow ^_^

For those who are new, it's nice to meet you! My name is Annastasia, or Arisa if you know me elsewhere. My other account is more casual, personal/fandom related, whereas here you will find my writing. If you skipped my profile, I'll typically be posting poetry, creative non-fiction essays, some fiction of various length, updates and excerpts from my YA novel, Cynical Chaos, and regular rants about my writing journey. If you like that sort of thing, I hope to see you around!

Dear, ****
I watched a man die today I watched a man
die
Today I watched a man die
today, die
I watched
die
Die today
I watched die
repeats on a loop
on a cycle
on a wheel
on a train track we can’t escape from

"Coffin Nails"

Adorn yourself

with the daggers

of the Underworld

Hex your words

with the dust of your fallen ancestors

Breathe the smoke of their labors

Hold oblivion in your hands

And command the world

with a finger

Ashes to Ashes

Nails in your coffin

There’s holiness in this salon

New Poem: "Rigor Mortis"

(also available to read on ao3)

Fun Fact
for those who didn’t know,
if our muscles aren’t being used
for consistent
Movement
they’ll grow attached
to the same position
we left them in
refusing to flex out of their comfort zone
planting roots in the grounds of our bodies
so we become
stuck
buried with our mistakes
