What is it about
You
That I should
Trust?
Is it your wit?
Your intelligence?
Your skills in research?
Or is it that
You believe
You are
Infallible
When it comes to all things
You?
I do not
Trust
You
You
Are too full of
You
To be worthy of my
Trust
Trust,
From me, must be
Earned
And to
Earn my
Trust
You
Must admit that
You know
Nothing
About
Anything
That is
Me
I love it when you drop the sarcasm and wit – not that I don’t enjoy that because I really, really do – but it’s always unexpected to read one of your “serious” pieces and they are so good!

Thanks. Used to write a lot of it way back when, but learned satire was more fun. However, I’m getting back into the swing of the poetry too. Glad you like it.

Thanks. Hard to do, isn’t it? Far too many shit-heads out there who don’t deserve it, and they’re sneaky bastards too.
