Just wondered if you ever got a chance to pursue the possibility of recovering the poems with 'the Geeks' ? I'd be willing to pay for some of that recovery cost since I've got a boatload of poems there :)

The story that seems to be pursuing you in the last few cinqs reminds me a bit of an old (1936) movie called "Dodsworth"... have you ever seen it? Long-suffering husband, his rather sad, desperate wife who takes a lover or two on their European "retirement" trip.

Sad and it doesn't end well for her.

Love how the story comes in cinq-sized chunks!
