Heart haiku : fears. Issue 5, Oct 2020.

Heart Haiku is a series of collaborative zines of patient-produced short-form poetry. Following a call for contributions on experiences of heart disease through the format of haiku, Laura Donald asked: "Is there anything about your heart condition that scares you? Or maybe living with a heart condition has made you less scared of something? Are your fears for yourself or for your loved one... or both? Perhaps it's potential future treatments that frighten you, or the lack of them? Maybe you're scared of dying, or of being kept alive? Maybe you worry about not being able to do everything you want to or you worry about your financial security? Perhaps appointments fill you with dread? Maybe you're really scared of needles and you need to go for your flu jab!" The haikus featured in this zine were contributed as comments on heartytales.co.uk--More information can be found on the zine maker's website. https://heartytalescouk.wordpress.com/2020/10/06/a-haiku-or-two-fears/
