 A poem titled *To be held* by Hannah Eve Levy. The poem describes a moment where the speaker's child finds a crushed monarch butterfly on the street and cradles it gently. The child asks, *Can we save it?*, prompting the speaker to experience a wave of panic and grief. Despite their hesitation, they respond with, *maybe we can try, maybe, we can try.* The poem concludes with the longing for all broken things to be held with such tenderness. The text is formatted with italicized and indented lines to emphasize certain phrases.

"I want everything that is broken to be held with this kind of love."

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

I think I have quite a high tolerance to winter but January is definitely the cruellest month, I don’t know what TS Eliot was on about
