The Chosen Sanctuary

We live…
In a near failed state
Failed due to the mischief of men
Who try & write their own destiny
Manufacturing poverty
In a failed family
Hissing with hostility
Between blood not strange
Bordering on brutality
As a disaster as an individual
Living life unaccountable
Disturbed psyche
Unpromising yet bursting with possibility
In a failed marriage
Owing to our lack of courage
To take on responsibilities
Retreating like a bear burdened
Having found no nourishment
As nature calls him for hibernation
We live
To shy away
To comfort’s cave
The chosen sanctuary
Warm with security
Peace & humility
