{pe} as given
{po} indicates possession in the sense of current or regular use, but not necessarily legal ownership
{po'e} indicates legal ownership (under the contextually relevant laws).

Ther is also the notion of "inalienable possession" such as obtains for one's body and body parts and a few other things (culturally defined). Those that Lojban (i.e. European culture) recognizes as such are marked in the place structure of the corresponding brivla; similar connection required by other cultures will be indicated by appropriate nonce forms.

(And then the gismu people have to make sure the claim about place structure is true — and perhps find a good source for a nonce form.)
