Back Seat Driven

by Debra White

 
Heading out...
 
The preacher perches
on his passenger seat pulpit
spouting wisdom and warning
 
Silently
I nod my head
clench my teeth
commit each and every word to memory -
     storing it
     for future reference
 
Returning...
 
The king of the road lounges
in his throne
bumper to bumper
with the car in front
 
I remind him
of this morning's sermon
 
Silently
                    It goes down
                                                    as anticipated
