The Nun That Saved Me: Rosicrucian Ride
Sister rode a horse
in her formative stirrup
the Rosicrucian Ride to deliver
a past life message that plays out
on the big screen with godly force
in tarot and in spades lending a hand
for my crossing the Powder River
bullet and bear
preacher and prayer
disfigurement and despair
birthmark sign of the times
rivalry busted flat broke while
the whores counted their dimes
The Chariot
and The Wheel
of Fortune with
the golden spoke
made from gopher wood
from Noah's Ark when it broke
in the sandbar there came out
of it a pulpit agent
Sister wrote
it all down in a
big book the whiskey
was good she looked after me
her presence in spirit in the minstrel tent
in return
the Powder River
Hymnals for what
religion is meant
