Saint Peter's crossed keys
offer hope of unlocked gates
is anyone home?

n.b. The keys on the shield of this iron gateway arch are a familiar symbol for those raised in the Roman church. Interesting bit of iconography, when you think about it. Keys mean various things, security, imprisonment, exclusion, safety.
In this context, they are a clear statement of insiders and outsiders, gatekeepers and offices of power.
Me? I quite enjoy being outside, in the fresh air.
