ok, i tried to get in contact with alex koch, but he won't give a sign
of life.

i'd like to re-send alex' version of the poem to bodo (referring to
alex as the author). still, i am wondering if two small changes would
be possible. the original goes:

.ai mi dei do ge sanga bau ro bangu
gi se pi'o ro cabra ku zgicusku
.i .iu ju'o
mi prami do

{di'e} instead of {dei}? shouldn't "it" refer to the following
utterance {mi prami do}?

{zgitci} instead of {cabra}? would be even more of a rhyme to my ears.


mu'o mi'e nils
