How To Make A Basket by Jazz Money

bellatobin's review

4.5

I haven’t read much poetry so I don’t know ‘good’ poetry but I loved this. Especially ‘a blue morning,’ ‘digital native,’ and ‘how to make a basket’

Poetry is all encompassing,

Encapturing
Enticing
Enhancing

Thoughts emotions ideas feeling

A few little words contain the universe.


Deep, heartfelt, moving.

A personal, political and powerful debut about culture, queerness, care and contemporary life in the Australian colony. Grateful.

                  ‘how to make a basket

first you must begin
with the grasses
first you must tend the blades
the sweet small shoots
first you must make healthy the soil
care for this place
tend with fire
carry the seeds
first you must make the land right
first you must love your mother

             what you care for will care for you

when you are ready
you will understand
how to make a basket’

(How to make a basket)


‘my heart

is breaking
in these arms
but I swear

if you could see this face
you would let your heart
be broken

again this morning’

(Hot and cold)
