“PD Lyons work stands at the threshold so loved in Ireland. That almost magical, almost mythical, almost otherworldly parallel that the Irish dip in and out of.

Oberon’s Law/ Fate Uses Hard Those Whose Stories Must Mean Something

Submission Guidelines

General Guidelines:

Writers in all their flavors are invited to submit 3 of their best works for consideration. What is the best, you ask? We like writing of all flavors that tastes like the Fantastic. We care significantly more about the style of the story than how it can be pigeon holed.  However, there should be elements of Speculative Fiction in each work.

Fiction short, shorter, shortest (5,000 to 50 words generally speaking). Poetry of any length (though Beowulf-long is a little bit much). We will consider also longer works for serial publication (send Kester an e-mail first, though)

When in doubt-send it over!

Send to: Submissions@OberonsLaw.com

Administrivia:

• Oberon’s Law will be published online weekly. Due to the nature of the beast, we cannot currently offer remuneration for the publication of accepted work. Only bragging rights.

• There is no reading fee or cost attendant to submission. Oberon’s Law is a free online ‘Zine. We’ll certainly take simultaneous submissions, please just let us know if your piece is accepted elsewhere.

• If you’ve received a response from our editors, please wait thirty days before submitting again.

two american poems/ pd lyons poetry project

Women Buying Guns In America

Smash the fuckin’ TV walk barefoot in the snow

Pierce ourselves with steel

Chew tequila worms ‘til the hand of god wipes our mouths

Piss wherever, say whatever fuck whoever

Fearless with the night of any street of any place

And no Thelma and Louise

We don’t die

Don’t even get caught

We hide

Disguised as geriatric cunts

Happy enough to sleep now

Two ends of the same rope coiling

Richly deserved pools of never never land

Surrender only to each other

 Our Peter Pan tongues.

 

 

 

 

 

American Outlaw

Always somebody just like you

Somewhere else

In photos

They even look the same

In their past your lovers

Have met and fucked them

In the dark they dreamt

Of things you used to pray for

after a day of rain

after a day of rain

white flowers

before a young girl

small songs upon the mist
