It makes one wonder what may come next ;-)

Indeed. I hope it will be some of those never published short stories.
I mean, 16 titles won't be that much for a compilation of poems, would it?

But it might make sense in terms of longer prose pieces.
("Tamara", "Luggage Fire Sale" and "Barbers and Lovers" won't be included in above lists, because at least those have been published once).

Hope springs eternal. ;-)


Dennis.
