NEW in Rabid Oak Issue 16 - my Snake Fingers!

I tried my best to turn you on, but I couldn’t.
Five minutes of porn turned you on more than me,
so my snake fingers learned how to lie down
beside you and fantasize about someone else
and use my own fingers on myself
until I couldn’t stop hissing.   

Issue 16 of Rabid Oak is newly up, offering 15 different voices, including a "Snake Fingers" poem by me, of which the last few lines appear above.

NEW! Two collaborative poems by j/j hastain and I in Rabid Oak Issue 11!

I can’t decide how to name
the shape of this branch;
whether to object or celebrate
its brokenness.
