Awww, the story of the 52-hertz whale is a bit heartbreaking, and your poem certainly captures that. The closing lines truly call out a sense of loneliness and want to be found. I'm glad you also included that image of the galaxy heart. Being able to go back and look at that did help me feel re-connected. I also loved the Bill of Rights for Slow Learners. I think it's important for people of all ages to take to heart, either for themselves or when dealing with others one may not feel is "picking things up" as quickly as one would like.

And once more, a congratulations on the published poem. It's exciting to see so much of your work out there like that.
