48. BIG BOY BIGGER DREAMS // Spinning Cosmic Plates [48]

Eden Longson Season 1 Episode 48

missed 3 months (oops, lol) so here is the long awaited PLOG (trademark pending) update, i chat about my sister's wedding in italy, my recent panic attack, as well as the numerous amounts of recent theatre visits

a lot of this PLOGcast centres around me as a musician, but also my mental health, which as a gigging musician in london is often tested, so please listen and if my ramblings can be any help, then ill be a happy (big) boy (with bigger dreams)


todays poem // 'Easy Enough To Pocket'


There’s a rock at the bottom of every garden

Every walk through the country

reveals another source of lingered sediment

easy enough to pocket


Some see a small and shiny pebble

smooth to the touch

or jagged and interesting that is

easy enough to pocket


The beach is covered in sand

Aka tiny tiny rocks,

plus shells, dolomite, and serpentine all

easy enough to pocket


For those brave enough

for those with big bold eyes

a pet rock or aquarium bolster is

easy enough to pocket


Next time I am walking through

some various wood or alleyway

If I should chance upon a rock that is

easy enough to pocket.


I shall.


BIG BOY BIGGER DREAMS

Come and listen to this (sometimes) fortnightly PLOG, chronicling the London (mis)adventures of me, composer and drummer Eden Longson, focussing on mental health and the professional world of music.

Go check out some of my music on Spotify and Apple Music, or even check out my website (www.edenlongson.com), but most of all please show some love to the pod by liking and reviewing the show.

Peace.
