Closest I ever got to a whale (an Orca) was outside it's re-hab tank at Mote Marine Research Center in Marathon FL. Got lucky enough that day to assist in vet checkups on two bottlenose dolphins that were part of a mass stranding on the Gulf side of FL. Incredible day.

i was watching gunsmoke on pluto and festus asked a guy with a guitar if he knew 'don't go kickin' my dog down the road' i googled it knowing he was originally a singer and 'stop kickin' my dog around' was a real folk song (which you probably knew amanda).

@Morgan, I think that's a totally valid perspective! Poetry and songwriting are distinct disciplines although ofc there is some overlap.

My view on poetry vs. lyrics (I've written tons of lyrics but in no way am I a poet) is it seems poetry has more "rules" than lyrics meant for songs. Just my way of looking at it. I enjoy both.
