Everything about The Larger Bowl A Pantoum totally explained
"The Larger Bowl (A Pantoum)" is the fourth
song and third single from
Rush's
2007 album Snakes & Arrows.
Inspiration and lyrical structure
The lyrics were written by the
drummer and primary
lyricist,
Neil Peart. The title was inspired by a "
dysentery dream" he'd while touring
West Africa on his
bicycle in
1988.
Neil Peart's book includes a chapter entitled
The Larger Bowl in which he describes the dream. The excerpt in which he mentions the song is as follows:
Anyway... a song was playing in the store, a plaintive ballad called "The Larger Bowl." Something about loneliness and the misfortunes of life, I recall. No such song as far as I know, but I like the title.
In the early
1990s, Peart put words to the title.
The song is written in the form of a
pantoum.
