What is the ‘Fantasia’ Flower? Are we to find out about this, or am I supposed to know?
You would certainly think Vivian would presuppose that Mr. Hooker might expect substantial incentive to carry her off for the purpose of finding a flower, regardless of her alluring appearance. She’s asking quite a lot here – expertise, transportation, financial collateral. What is she offering as enticement? I get the impression that Mr. Hooker is European? (His father was a knighted Botanist?) That suggests he comes from money, though Botanists don’t make any. He must have been independently wealthy. Botany was a hobby.
As you proceed with your tale, don’t forget that there is a war raging in Europe. Britian is being bombarded by blitzkriegs and at the verge of collapse. France has fallen to the Germans. The US will be involved within the year. It’s not a time of luxury and leisure unless you happen to live in Berlin. The depression began in 1929 and lasted until the war in 1941. All travel overseas is suspect and risky. You would expect someone like Darrius to be involved with the war as most of the male population his age.
The writing is crisp, Fia. I like it. Raiders of the Lost Ark was staged during this time period. One of my favorites!

Hoi hoi
Hope this finds you well.I don’t know if you did hear one of the cooperations I posted on DUP, of a DUP member and myself?
What you describe here is the essence of making music purely for fun.
Count to 4 and hammer away. Noise wonderful, tuning the guitar an option.Thank you so much for making and posting this wonderful poem.
Kind regards, Gus-

Hi Gus, I do not think I did hear the collaboration you had. It must have been fun. Thank you for liking and commenting on this.

There were some 10 or 12 coops all in all. They attracted anything between an estimated 4,500 and 12,500 listeners per song. All musicians, writers and 8 of them a coop with DUP’ers.
Women often have to work harder to get a decent stage. I attempted to mingle fun with exposure to Dutch and international public.
But no matter, DUP is a sort of history book by now.
I hugely enjoyed you poem. Was it an Ibanez bass?I wish you a beautiful Friday! Gus

I love the electric bass.
I go way back on that love with
Jack Casady who was with
Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna.
Others too of course.
They always said of Jack that
“he carries it” meaning that he’s the heart of the band and sets the tone.BIG BASS LIKE …. ALWAYS

I’m pleased to read you once again, Brenda. If only you weren’t so haunted though. I understand the loss of identity myself, so big hugs..
Seems like you lost someone too, and for that, I’m sorry. Here’s a little extra light, mixed with love. 🩷✨-
