Music March 31

Prompts for this month will be song based. I am going to suggest a song each day, but my song choices definitely lean towards being good prompts for horror, so if you want something lighter, pick a song that means more to you. I’ll post a quote that you can take, or you can listen to the song as a whole. I’ve selected songs from two bands who are bringing a horror atmosphere into their music. As with the tarot cards, use them to generate ideas or short pieces of writing, or even scenes that might form part of a larger work.

Song 31 is Euclid by Sleep Token.

“It’s still the autumn leaves
These ancient canopies
That we used to lay beneath
No, by now
The night belongs to you
This bough has broken through
I must be someone new”

Some ideas based on this song:

• A character remembering a friend or love they have lost contact with as they struggle with adult life.

• As above, but they are losing their memory and it is gradually revealed they caused the death of the person they are remembering.
