Rauhnacht, by Ashmore

12 track album

Ashmore

A. T. Ashmore Feb 2

Okkult is complete.
This cycle is birth, death and rebirth.
It took me many years to shape it into this form.
Many of my works grew from its soil.
Now the doors are open.

Okkult X: Coda — The Fall of Naj. Ritual Dark Poetry

Okkult X: Coda is the final chapter of the Okkult cycle. Gods fall, symbols decay, and meaning collapses. A work of dark poetry and mythic horror about exile and consequence.

Cicada Cult

A. T. Ashmore Jan 23

All disruptions in mankind,
all wars, diseases, and miracles,
all thoughts, fears and myths—
everything ever—
was expressed through art.
Nothing changed.
I welcome the new day.
I endure the night.
Craft over plastic.

I don’t want to sell you books.
I want to transmit them.

Word by word.

This is yours
as it is mine.

A. T. Ashmore Jan 19

Every word hammered with Kraft.
Pounding, sounding,
metal on metal.
Artbeat in existence.
Glowing bones,
molten face:
my eyes reflect.
No longer alone.

I am reactivating this account.
I never really used it. But I understand now:
#Mastodon is the only social media network for #art.
Everywhere else: noise & clickbait.
But I am looking for people.
I create #ritual #horror, #visual fragments, and #audio transmissions.
If you're here for #art, I'm with you.
Who are you?

A. T. Ashmore Mar 6, 2025

You are an writer when you write. Publishing doesn’t make you an author—it makes you a publisher.
