The Sundance Wives: Legends of the Screen
we came out -
of nowhere, believers
of everything gold, everything
good, heavenly apparitions our
stories told,
religion bound
for sun-bleached corral
boards, wormwood scripture
challenged how many nails we
could pound,
film converts with
Rosicrucian-covered
pommels saddled with
attitude and godly theisms,
those damn rivals chasing
platitudes, hackney and stale,
our fresh agenda broke out of
religion's f***ing jail.
