Sanctuary

Here

We are proud to accept

The square pegs, the unwanted guests

The fifth wheels

The last choices for the teams

We reserve the right to approve

The desperate, the inadequate

The uncomfortable, the socially inept

Those who grope for the right words

We welcome without prejudice

The stutterers, the blushers

The shut-ins and the elective mutes

And the ones who can’t stop crying

All of you, everyone who finds it

Nigh-on impossible to fit in

We have a place, a space

Just for you

Here.
