After a false start a month or so ago, when nothing happened, Dru's received an email from the Beeb to say that my poem, 'Kin', requested by her back in 2012, will DEFINITELY be on Poetry Please on Radio 4 this Sunday, from 4.30pm. That's this Sunday, 29th May. From 4.30pm. Absolutely definitely. Really.
However, I've since been informed that it will be on the same time as the commentary on
some football match at Wembley involving a team called Barnsley. And
apparently this might be a problem ...
Oh well, I'm sure someone will rethink their priorities before it's too late.
'Kin' is from my 2011 collection, 'Communion', published by Indigo Dreams Press, and also appears in Dru's illustrated anthology of wildlife poems, 'Inking Bitterns', available from Gert Macky Books.
