“Fishwife” published in Line Zero

By Nico on Friday the 13th of January, 2012 at 10:00 am

Line Zero, Issue 5My poem “Fishwife” has been published in issue 5 of Line Zero.

Earlier I mentioned that my poem “Innocence” was published in CV2. That poem is now available on their website along with other excerpts from that issue, which is pretty cool.

The Found Poetry Review, Fall 2011

My poem “Vicious Beauty” has been published in the Fall 2011 edition of The Found Poetry Review. It juxtaposes an excerpt from Bertrand Russell on beauty with words taken from a biography of Sid Vicious. I kinda like it.

You can check out the whole issue online.

“Marks: Uniting Sprit and Flesh” published in Trigger93

By Nico on Wednesday the 9th of November, 2011 at 11:08 am

Trigger93: FLESH! Volume 2I just received the latest issue of Trigger93, which contains my essay “Marks: Uniting Spirit and Flesh”.

The theme of this issue is “Flesh”, and my piece is a personal essay on spiritual tattoos.  Though the ways this theme has been interpreted are as varied as they are powerful, from the interview with Anna Blume on ACT UP’s AIDS activism in the 90s to field notes on crucifixion in the Philippines from Christina Verano Carter – complete with striking photographs, to editor Ayesha Adamo’s piece on method acting, and the path she took to really get inside her character.

It’s a great issue, and I’ve only touched on some of the content. It’s well worth checking out.
