Author: michael raven

Michael Raven has been murdering innocent words since some time in primary school and hasn’t had the decency to stop after he was first published in second grade. During the mid-90s, he was the emcee at a spoken word/open mic salon, "Sweet Immolation", in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood. He is deeply interested in the Old Ways and in shamanic traditions.

winter songs on the wind
wraiths of what we
had once been
the damage needles
piercing ice
needfire just out
of grasping fingers' reach

dissembly

done gone asleep
at the wheel and
the weaving, wending
sway careens into
side rails safely steering
me into milquetoast
and pu'er steeped in
blood and tears

shedding winter skins with
drifts to meltpond
crows calling
come come come
antlers litter stone
& heartbeat drum
water chill/gooseflesh

casting crooked
colors across

mirror rust
staining that
other face
antiqued framed
in hair tarnished
silver

a mouth's cruel
betrayal smirking
