Notes	This poem describes a friend of the speaker of the poem, Seán, who seems very clued-in on modern day human rights issues, despite his age and relative geographical isolation - the plight of Native Americans, Alaska pipelines, government skulduggery, and the Battle of the Somme during World War I.
