Sanctuary

A Blanket, a Wall, Home — Peace —
By piece — found fleeing Freedom —
Crossing continents, walking to
An End — a Border — a moment to

Grasp — a Monumental wisp —
A Torch lighting generations
Now sets hope adust — parched screams
Chanting ignorance in cadence —

In Pledge — the heart struggles — stunned
By Separation — silenced — subdued —
Walls no longer protect — enclosing —
Even those within — have no home
