The Truest Spirit
By Richard Le Due
My yesterdays
are ghost stories
without
a campfire,
while
my old drinking buddies
phantoms
who haven’t died yet,
and the
cheap whisky in my
cupboard
the truest
spirit, letting
my past
slowly die of thirst.
Richard LeDue (he/him) lives
in Norway House, Manitoba, Canada. He has been published both online and
in print and is the author of numerous books of poetry. His latest full length
book, Another Another, was released from Alien Buddha Press in May
2025.
Cindy Rosmus originally hails from the Ironbound section of Newark, NJ, once voted the “unfriendliest
city on the planet.” She talks like Anybodys from West Side Story and everybody
from Saturday Night Fever. Her noir/horror/bizarro
stories have been published in the coolest places, such as Shotgun
Honey; Megazine; Dark Dossier; The Rye Whiskey Review,
Under the Bleachers, and Rock and a Hard Place. She is the editor/art
director of Yellow Mama. She’s published seven collections of short stories. Cindy is
a Gemini, a Christian, and an animal rights advocate. She has recently
branched out into photo illustration.
