Sonder! I really like these first two pieces. Your formatting is so neat and polished and the word choice is somehow just the right blend of academic/scientific and poetic.

This phrasing was beautiful:
"you gesture vaguely to the turbid galaxies roiling above overwhelmed"
I love how nonchalant that is and yet the turn to "overwhelmed" at the end.
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.
