Ah, I'm really glad you like the poem! :D I have a couple of little books of his poetry now, I might post some more later. And yeah...I don't regret going at all, though I'm not sure if I'll have brought the quality of it back with me because I think it takes the entire setting and the combined culture of the people to create that sort of environment. The only thing I do know, though, is that it's a sure thing I'm going back, even if it takes my whole life. :) I couldn't possibly stay away.

Also, in response to your other comment which I apparently didn't answer because I fail: I don't know what I'm going to do when my computer dies; I probably wouldn't try to replace it until school starts again. A summer without a computer would be weird, but I basically lived between internet cafés in Guatemala anyway. >.> I'm sorry to hear that your desktop is dying too, though :( I hope that it's at least lasting long enough for you to finish everything important!
