Try placing
        .rs
above  .mk .

from groff(7)
        .rs       Restore spacing; turn no-space mode off.

If that does not work, try placing
        \&
(the zero-width filler character) above  .mk .


Groff starts off in  no-space mode  until either the  .rs  command or some text
is output.  no-space mode  means any request for vertical spacing is ignored.

I cannot find where this is explained in the documentation.
        Computing Science Technical Report No. 54
               Troff User's Manual
hints at it, but ...
