Your Trust By Alyssa Trivett

Keep all the thoughts in a room.
Overnight and expedite them.
Put on evening like a pot of coffee,
it can always be shut off.
Compartmentalized in drawers,
hacking off the meaning of hour,
the minute hand chainsaw
chiseling away as days wind down
into another season
and comic bubbles continue
amongst valid conversation.
Let me know what you think
turns into the privilege
of talking in cars.
Thank you for your friendship,
and for your trust.
