Uniqueness Finds Love

Janet Kuypers
1/12/22 continuation her poems
Unique Noise” and “One Lonesome Whale

Pacing inside my walls, I was trapped in this cage
after hearing the news of one lonesome whale
roaming the Pacific with a 52 Hertz mating call—
higher than what any other whale could hear.

Discovered by Naval researchers, this one whale
pulled on the heartstrings of many generations,
because we all all to painfully know that loneliness
and that desperation— can anyone hear our pleas.

Pandemics force us into isolation, which further
restricts any chance for connection, days become
years as we are forced into this separation, and we
suddenly now connect to this one lonesome whale.

So in our new isolation, we sit in our boxes, type
questions to our Internet corporate Big Brother—
and realize we weren’t alone in loss, as newspapers
share, musicians croon, and researchers... search,

to no avail: until they found audio records of that one
singular sound— in two places. There was another.
Without finding the whale, they instead found hope—
that no matter who you are, no one is truly alone.
