Hello Ram, I am so glad you like my poem-serial, this was originally called the Black Dove, and was a novel, I rewrote it and changed the storyline for what you see before you. the story is in 12 parts, it started as a period tragedy and became later science fiction. You may like to browse my other poems, thanks for your comments. John
