Joanna Newsom



a harpist singer song writer on the right side of eccentric poet.. funny odd literate imagery that ranges from the everyday to the fable like - or is it the fable like everyday.

"The sight of bridges and balloons
makes calm canaries irritable;
they caw and claw all afternoon:
"Catenaries and dirigibles
brace and buoy the living-room --
a loom of metal, warp - woof - wimble."
And a thimblesworth of milky moon
can touch hearts larger than a thimble."
