Ministry Wallet Card

ropers tight
on her feet they
said she'd marry that
rodeo cowboy junior wyatt
she wasn't into jeans but kept
it quiet there was a woman she saw
at night

log bed had
a loose washer
nut fell to the floor
breaking tradition senior wyatt
knocking at the front door to retrieve
his daughter the woman she saw at night
she yelled it wasn't her

"junior wyatt
can't compete" the sister
whispered soft jelly she put
it to her the senior wyatt set fire
to the outside of the barn he would
deny it they saw the flames her proof
of ministry wallet card lie between them
in the sheets and his daughter threw on a robe
screaming out the door "daddy that's where I park
your truck in her barn, junior wyatt can't compete!"

junior wyatt
drunk and passed out
in the bed of the truck when
she took it the money burned too
the monopoly game bankrupt melted
plastic pieces the real money tied with
a rubber band around her proof of ministry
wallet card senior wyatt was handcuffed in
the yard
