Sanctuary

S   A   N   C   T   U   A   R   Y    
                                                                
      S     Sadly for all pompous pooh-bahs         S    
      A     arrogance vaunts a venal vista,           A
      N     no hope for an infinite heaven.            N
      C     Can contempt claim one’s logic?          C
      T     Tyrants are blind to afterthought          T
      U     Undoubtedly, Satan is their guru;        U
      A      alas, ageless abyss, his “utopia."        A
      R      Refuge is promised from our Father,    R
      Y     "You have in God, a safe sanctuary."     Y
