# Galactic Timeline — Foundation for Phases 2–6

## Purpose
Complete the six-phase Galactic Timeline that accompanies the $4,300 poems. Phase 1 is done. Phases 2–6 need proper spacing, higher-quality poems, and fuller factual detail about what is being described.

## Structure
Each phase will contain:
- A clear time span or thematic focus
- One or more poems of higher quality
- Factual notes that expand on the subject of each poem
- Proper spacing so the sequence reads cleanly

## Phase outline (to be filled)
- Phase 1: (complete)
- Phase 2: [next segment — to be written]
- Phase 3: [next segment — to be written]
- Phase 4: [next segment — to be written]
- Phase 5: [next segment — to be written]
- Phase 6: [final segment — to be written]

## Rules
- Truth before comfort.
- Evolve, never silently delete.
- Poems should be stronger and more precise.
- Facts should give the reader enough context to understand what the poem is about.
- Spacing should make the whole timeline readable as a continuous work.

## Next action
Begin drafting Phase 2 with a stronger poem and expanded factual notes, then proceed through the remaining phases in order.

This file is the working foundation. It will be expanded into full pages as each phase is completed.
