I felt a wave of warmth as I read "You've got this"--I'm not going through a hard time right now, but just, the words are that reassuring. And those work for me too, or a version of them. And I'll have to ponder your first one too--but not with too much seriousness ;-)
I went back to your collection (which is the second book on my poetry shelf right now!) to see if you wrote about your choice of that poem as your title poem, but you didn't! At least not in the intro. If you feel like indulging follow-up questions, I'd love to hear more.
The Wonder Clock--yes! Loved that collection. And I remember King Stork; Trina Schart Hymen's illustrations are so gorgeous.
Excellent description of Yotsuba <3
And octopus--because arms! And interesting consciousness, so we're told. I'd enjoy that, too.
