Remember The Alamo

She wanted it
All the local bling bling
And a man to pay for it
A husband of her own
Her desperate goal
The opposite of
Feminist

The Alamo
Surprisingly small
The Texans most sacred shrine
Is really a gift shop
For an odd brand of
Cowboy religion
And martyrs

She wanders
Bird-like across stone
Browsing through history
Hand crafted in China
Pecking at trinkets
Hinting and hoping
I would buy
