Dreaming of Tiny Dancer Lilacs
Desire
A Rosy Glow at Dawn
Scarlet’s Sin
Scarlet’s Sin
Once upon a secret breeze
thirst and hunger tasted like transgression
Unhinged rage sought out an odyssey
from a provocative voice
And I swim into the deep of the saliva
A voluptuous silhouette in the sky
playing with precarious flames
splash of kerosene, a fatal match
Entwined in intoxicating magic
And I swim into the deep of the cravings
Disoriented from a hazardous touch
A forgotten goodbye evaporated
Dumbfounded and flabbergasted
Sucked in from a beloved sin
And I swim into the deep of the desire
Glazed from the saturation
Distracted and preoccupied
Falling in a pitfall of a fascination
Sinking deeper into the scarlet
And I swim into the deep where I may drown

Tenderness on Effervescent Lane
Sweet Ophelia,
Out of morbid curiosity
Are your lingering shadows in disbelief
Bitter tongue bound and burned
The scent of your scars never learned
Sweet Ophelia,
Between your warmth and generosity
How can you be in love with me
Sadness is a hummingbird in my eyes
Broken down with armor in disguise
“She deserves more than I could ever give,
But she clenches on to me as long as we both shall live,
Neither of us know what we deserve,
With her by my side, I can see my worth”
Sweet Ophelia,
Inside this snowflake feel the monstrosity
Are you afraid I will be the one to leave
Fear is the calm wrapped around my bones
Whispering “you are my center and my home”
Sweet Ophelia,
Of all the treasures and the uncertainty
Faith is trusting in the power of what you can’t see
How can you love a man who doesn’t love himself
For I have forgiven the stars, nothing else
“She deserves more than I could ever give,
But she clenches on to me as long as we both shall live,
Neither of us know what we deserve,
With her by my side, I can see my worth”

The Raven’s Poison
From the mind of Braeden Michaels, drink from this cup, the raven’s poison, a concoction of his collected poems all about the human condition. Imbibe in the rainbow of emotions found in the soul’s colors and taste the bitter aftertaste when you’re drenched in rage.
Indulge in the reasons beneath dripping lust before absorbing all the ways we experience our wide-ranging flavors of love and finish off with a sip of self-destruction. This is us. Humanity. All the layers stripped away and arranged for your pleasure.

Exhaling Infatuation Road
I coughed up a tangled fairy tale
A translucent liquid composed of quicksand
and psychedelic castles in the air
Dismay biting a breeze of reverberation
Lust was an unforgivable bottle of poison
Trapped between sincerity and admiration
For you and the wind that wraps me up in
clouds of dust, I surrender
For you and the sensitivity that twinkles like a star, I surrender
For you and your sacred taste of sweet affection, I surrender
Forgive me, if I need too much
Forgive me, if I desire too much
Caught up in the endearing glances
Unspoken words, intoxicating voice
Inviting and lost in a whirlwind
Confusing thoughts, mixed signals
Unhinged cravings, lava sensation
For you and the wind that wraps me up in
clouds of dust, I surrender
For you and the sensitivity that twinkles like a star, I surrender
For you and your sacred taste of sweet affection, I surrender
Forgive me, if I need too much
Forgive me, if I desire too much
A wicked charm alluring
Sweat pouring, rhythmic tongue
“Magic not seeing what was tragic”
Insatiable endless night dancing
Clawing and reaching for tenderness
For you and the wind that wraps me up in
clouds of dust, I surrender
For you and the sensitivity that twinkles like a star, I surrender
For you and your sacred taste of sweet affection, I surrender
Forgive me, if I need too much
Forgive me, if I desire too much

Lovekill Ramblings Part 1
Love was just an insignificant occupant making me gag
Love was just a bad joke I heard in another language I couldn’t comprehend
Love was just a citizen that held me down and raped my soul with a jagged knife
Love was just a stench I couldn’t wash out
Love was just a word created by Hallmark
Love was just four letters thrown together to serve a ridiculous purpose
Love was just a shadow so I can feel myself
Love was just a bruise on my shin to prove I exist
Love was just a song written by a billion dollar jester
Love was just a death wish waiting in the wings
Love was just a plant I didn’t water
Love was just a black eye with covered up lies
Love was just a watercolor I can’t see
Love was just mascara running down my face
Love was just a cloud of obscurity
Love was just a gram and a kilo of voids
Love was just a room of emptiness
Love was just a shattered mirror I look at every day
Love was just a pile of poems that made sense one day
Love was a just a pile of poems that I threw away the next day
Love was just an adolescent that claimed to know it all
Love was just an adult with an addiction that didn’t know a damn thing
Love was just a bomb that exploded on planes, in buildings, and in schools
Love was just a clan, cult, gang, a war of losses
Love was just a book that millions don’t read
Love was just a doctrine of stolen beliefs
Love was just a pile of divorce papers
Love was just a trigger pulled by one finger as the other four were staring at him
Love was just an overused word
Love was just ten minutes of causal sex
Love was just an irrational scream
Love was just the sun not seeing the moon
Love was just a down payment for an item I haven’t touched
Love was just a puzzle piece that doesn’t seem to fit anywhere
Colors of Lust
Blood Paint
Forehead Kiss
Vigorously illuminating
She’s overworked
Quite compelling
She’s overtired
Completely potent
She’s giving
Magically robust
She’s asleep on the couch at 1AM
Forever lovely
She’s precious
Make up less
She’s still captivating
Deserves everything
She deserves a forehead kiss
Tears and Sadness
Unspoken Rush – Collaboration w/ Sakshi
Stumbling in and out
A blurry vision stuck in the corner
Moments ripped at the seams
Strangers on the edge of thirst
There was a rush
Some unspoken urgency
His alluring eyes dripped desire
Intoxicated with need
Thoughts unraveled
Urges climbing to the top
Animalistic hunger bitten
Senses enhanced
A throbbing pain
Engulfed her senses
Enthralled and smitten
By his glance
Intensity bursting
Hidden gliding hand
Slightly revealing
Inevitable attraction
Both were in trance
Captive in each other’s arms
Heaving and breathing
Forgetting all moral qualms
Deep thrusts of fire
Like a train in a tunnel
Torn clothes
Devouring velvet
Their night of passion
Met the break of dawn
They savored each moment
And moaned to climax

Strangers and Lovers – Collaboration
I didn’t mean to fall for your
magnificent intellect and brilliant eyes
I didn’t mean to fall for your
stunning curves and accent
I didn’t mean to fall for your
innocent laugh and magnetic charm
I didn’t mean to fall for your
echoing fortress and wide skies
I didn’t mean to fall for your
lips of ecstasy and golden tongue
I didn’t mean to fall for your
luscious skin and blissful scent
I didn’t mean to fall for your
beloved moon and drops of silver
I didn’t mean to fall for your
desirous flame and solid wick
I didn’t mean to fall for your
intoxicating personality
still we have no control over destiny
and luck is not the same as fate.
Reflections blending through a window
lovers and strangers, the cruelest fate.
My heart is a bird trailing its shadow
Its course charted and true</
I never meant to fall,
but I’ve fallen like the night for you.

Collaboration w/ All About Life – The Serpent’s Descent
Jungle like appetites dangle
Salivating like a savage
Like a cherry to be swallowed whole
Gulping down the passion
Engulfing like a predator
Primeval serpent enslaving
With exquisite poison, lashing
Languishing deep within
Force, forced ever deeper
Into the narrow, miry abyss
Gobbling and feverish groans
Temptations shredded to bits
Comfort and smoothness meshing
Melting desires in our hands
Tasting a scrumptious spot
Arching, stretched bow taut
Drawing ever deeper
Writhing lost in ecstasy
Agony, awareness fades
All sensation focused
Animalistic tension glaring
Expletive moans thicken
Ignoring the glowing sunrise
Peaks of euphoria strike
Unbelievable chemistry
Clutching, rising, reaching
Gasping, the final plateau
Feeling omnipotent, puissant
Shuddering slow descent
Into childlike peace
Releasing the outcome
Intoxicating visual
Mind blowing eye contact
Flowing like a heavenly river
Round one complete

Stark Raving Armor
She fell in love
with his top hat and vaudeville looks
She fell in love
with his chocolate wit and ripped edge tone
She fell in love
with his Broadway voice and commanding demeanor
She fell in love
with his gloss and glitz of his sword
She fell in love with
his galant worth and the backbone of his confidence
She fell in love
with his chivalry and gentle heart
She fell in love
with his deep river and his stark raving armor
She fell in love
with his lyrics and got lost in the melody
Saturated with Rage Byway
Before you make a sharp turn
on Over Exaggerated Lane
Signs for Decaying Truth Hill
are on your right in front
of the redwood trees
Follow the uneven road
and you will see Disturbance Road
Veer to the left and see the
old rotted sign for Route Bloodsucker
Drive twenty miles with
irritated skin and a defying mistress
Overloads of fierce tension
will consume your one track mind
Disconnect the alarm clocks
as you drive on the famous
Saturated with Rage Byway

Give me your bright light
Give me your forgiving soul

Give me your precious wisdom

Give me your tender heart beat
Give me your gentle words
Give me your beloved patience

Beautifully Broken
She walked into the rhythm of the Unspoken dance
She walked into a breeze that illuminated her glow
She left California to feel another sun
She walked into a haze that became clear from her scars
She walked into the word loyalty and never looked back
She left happiness without a choice
She walked into the phrase Come here with a luscious smile
She walked into the candles of hope to give her a glimpse of her future
She left summer to stand in a chill
She walked into the morning rain without an umbrella to embrace the sensitivity
She walked into a pale sky seeking colors that would make her stronger
She left a chapter struggling to turn the pages still looking beautiful
Terms of Endearment
It’s been a pleasure my love
It’s been a joy my sweet heart
You are my center
It’s been a delight my plum
It’s been wondrous my beloved
You are my rock
It’s been precious my sweet pea
It’s been a dreamscape my angel
You are my other half
It’s been enchanting my dear
It’s been a world of glee my light
You are my world

Photograph It
Wide eyed
Staring at the rhythm
Tongue tied
Damn and gosh
Almost speechless
Slick movements
Move closer
In slow motion
Released thoughts
Steady grunts
Mesmerized picture
Up and down
Come here
Photograph it
with your mind
