Asylum Seeking is a Human Right
“no one leaves home unless
home is the mouth of a shark
you only run for the border
when you see the whole city running as well
…
no one leaves home until home is a sweaty voice in your ear
saying-
leave,
run away from me now
i dont know what i’ve become
but i know that anywhere
is safer than here”

From the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
Article 14
- Everyone has the right to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution.
- This right may not be invoked in the case of prosecutions genuinely arising from non-political crimes or from acts contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.
