One more for the weekend in this collaboration with photographer Tom Darin Liskey.
VIII. Broke Down Light
Squint into sunlight, stretch –
ten bricks higher to the left,
and then a few more,
just out of reach – but you
never give up, do you?
There’s a thing needs
straightening, always your hand
quick to the task. No matter
this broke down light
ceased shining eons past.
They never gave up on you.
There’s always that reason
to keep reaching.
