Musings Of My Muddled Mind
: A Poem of Two Journeys by Debra White


Journey There

There he sits--
the Preacher
in his passenger seat pulpit,
spouting forth.

I grit my teeth,
nod my head,
commit each. and. every. word.
to memory,
storing it
for future reference.

 
Journey Back

There he sits--
King of the Road
on his throne.

Up the arse 
of the car in front.

I grit my teeth,
nod my head,
remind him
of this morning's sermon.

It
goes
down
exactly. as. anticipated.

One point to me.
(Not that I'm counting...!)

Author Notes
Inspired by my hypocritical back-seat-driving husband. Love him really ;)
