We Carry the Sky
We Carry the Sky | Mckayla Robbin
8 posts | 8 read | 23 to read
"all women carry the sky inside of them didn't your mother ever tell you that" In her first collection of poetry, McKayla Robbin grows language "like wildflowers / from the wounds / that for years / would not close up." Simultaneously vulnerable and fierce, her short-form poems engage themes of femininity, identity, violence, and healing.

I bought this book for my friend's birthday and ended up reading it before I gave it to her. This was one of my favorite poems so I took a photo of it!

Taking a short break from virals to shower & enjoy a little poetry. One of my goals this year was to start reading poetry. I'm going to need suggestions. What are some of your favorites? Leave them for me below. 👇🏼

I think i really need to buy physical books for poetry. I love my kindle to the ends of the universe, but poetry needs pages turning. This is my second favorite book of poetry I've read this year. Very powerful.
