Attic Zine Blue
Attic Zine is an “international assembling zine compiled by Nicola Winborn”. It emphasizes handmade art and visual poetry with every issue focusing on a specific colour. Each artist submits 20 pieces which are then used to create, along with the work of other artists, individual zines for redistribution by Winborn. The participants receive a unique and beautiful zine which includes one of their submitted pieces along with the work of other artists.
The following pieces are the collected works I submitted to Attic Zine Blue:

Fifty at Fifty: My Haiku
Please see the PDF below for my chapbook Fifty at Fifty: My Haiku. It is a collection of my best haiku as of my fiftieth birthday last summer.

Wobble
In the front pew I sit awaiting my parents. Before me is a huge old cross to which a wooden Jesus is nailed. I examine His outstretched arms, the way His head hangs down. My atheist uncle says death on a cross comes through asphyxiation. There’s no way, he argues, that Jesus called “Why hast Thou forsaken me?” while choking to His death.
The Pastor’s hand on my shoulder startles me. He meets my eye, then looks up to that same cross. “What’s amazing,” he says while pointing with his Bible, “is that everything inside this Book is true.”
My parents arrive as the service begins. As much as I try to pay attention, I get distracted when the Pastor clears his throat.
afternoon sun …
my shadow and I
the same length
