1.1 sailing
lightsails blooming bright
catching the sun leaving home
ahead be dragons
1.2 visitors
far side of the moon
a footprint splayed in the dust
six toes and no shoe
1.3 meeting
time shattered not bent
meeting yourself on the way
Merging to nothing
1.4 beware
years of starflighting
the end of the universe reached
high guarded walls wait
