Wayzgoose
Next Saturday, 11th April I’m attending the Print Fair, or Wayzgoose at Hay Castle.
I love the word Wayzgoose and the fact that Way rhymes with Hay set me off on a nostalgic memory of watching Michael Rosen performing his poems ‘Everybody and Shampoo’ which I’d seen on a video while at primary school.
The joy of language and playing with words in this piece has stayed lodged in my mind for the 35 years or so since I first heard it.
This risograph print / 4 prints /zine has been made for the print fair as a result of my playing with the words and the character of a goose that likes words as much as I do.
