Sanctuary
The man under the hoodie
once had dreams,
heard the clear, apparent,
lilt of children’s voices.
Then the liquid veil
came down,
obscuring and confusing.
Such songs now too distant.
They lie too far across the aural chasm.
His hood- a dome,
all he owns and is
and ever hopes or wants to be,
found here.
His sanctuary,
our acceptance.
