"'Letters from Pennsylvania to Washington: for Ellie Chu' is another work that manages to address contemporary concerns while achieving a liminal space that is at once urgent and out of time. On a literal level, this is a poem about travel (and trains, gravity, acceleration, motion, and the implication of all of these energies being grounded or derailed—by both clear and less obvious forces). There is a resigned nod to inevitability and even reality which, sadly, in 2021 none of us can assume is reciprocated in good faith, but there’s also an unmistakable vibration of expectation. In the final lines we have something so many of us desperately need and have been in lamentably short supply of lately: hope." -Sean Murphy, 2021 1455 Teen Poetry Contest Judge
