asylum
sanctuarium sanctuaire santuario sanctuary
asulon asile asilo asylum
weighty reference works tell me
these words are aligned
mean the same thing
can be used interchangeably
i know better
sanc-tu-ar-y
up float images of an altar
candles blazing
the body and the blood
safe from earthly harm
in the arms of jesus
a-sy-lum
nothing floating here
instead a dark descent
into the basement of the world
locked away
not fit to be looked upon
i sought sanctuary
i needed rescue
from the depredations
of the world
a place to rest and heal
in quiet illumination
that prayer was answered
with asylum
no loving arms
no firelit warmth
only the monstrous chill
of barbwire isolation
