SKY THEY YEARNED TO CALL MINE

sky they yearned to call mine is a collaborative poetry collection by Brenda Beardsley and Liza Wolff-Francis, written as an exchange that reshapes grief in real time. Moving between the personal and the political, the poems respond to pandemic isolation, environmental destruction, war, and the threat to bodily autonomy. Together, the poets find endurance in attention, relationship, and the persistence of love amid collapse.
