finding refuge in the safe

what
is deemed important enough
to find
refuge
in the safe?
which document
deserves
such a place, safely
stored
from fire or flood,
or dear lord,
theft
by an unwanted
guest.
the deeds to cars
and home,
of course,
insurance policies,
a divorce decree or two,
some cash
for dire times,
an extra set of keys to
everything
i own,
and of course a picture
of me
and you.
