Maanav- your pieces have always made me laugh and how. This made me cry. And you told it, I think you were pretending to read, the words were in your system. In every cell of you. Thank you for sharing this.

Visceral, visual, sensorial writing... and what a narration!

Goosebumps all the way. My body responding to the words...

Gobsmacked at "The precise beats of the morning" and the way you wrote and performed them. The more this piece lingers on what happened before the moment your life changed, the more we feel the impact of the moment your life changed.
