Season 1, Episode 1878, Sep 29, 2012, 02:24 PM
It's about 07:25 in Portland Oregon USA - AJ Leon is already up and at it... He's even reached across to Ireland via Twitter already this Saturday. #SOBCon is in full flight... This poem by #ArthurWatson is from his collection "Spirit Store" ISBN 9780956141237 It is strong stuff because it was written after his friend was "abducted, raped and murdered with her child and a priest and dumped in Crag Wood, Co Clare, 1994". You hear a reading of this gift to @ajleon - and a few comments from Paul O'Mahony afterwards. This is No 29 of 1,080 gifts of poetry to express solidarity with #pursuitofeverything "Around the World in 1,080 Days" - by nomading remarkable misfit.
