#LiftToTheSky Monday:
Community isn’t abstract. It’s built post by post.

In the centre of the image, handwritten-style text reads “#LIFTTOTHESKY,” with “@thebrokenspine.co.uk” beneath it. The Broken Spine fountain pen logo appears in the top right corner.

Photo, no descriptionThe neighbor has grown two pines.
Or, perhaps those who lived there once
when the rent wasn’t for masqueraders
playing pretend in million dollar homes,
planted these conifers with black hands.
Tended to them until the city said taxes
had gone so high that they were pushed
a street over, another, one more…
all the way to another island,
separated by a river’s rushing
from the roots they had put to earth
uptown where the Columbia undergrads
sip twelve dollar beer and dream
of one day owning anything.

Unknown miles below,
another town bisected
by one state highway
and many numbered
splinters.

Engine trails fade in daylight
and stars disappear from night.
A child looks up at the blink,
says “Someday” with promise.
Assuredly.

#MenOnMonday #LiftToTheSky

I just came across this initiative and in a time of rising toxic masculinity, am so glad to see good men being celebrated. A few for today.
