developing trust

when the maid
comes

i hide nothing.
i put money out all over the place.

loose change, folding money.

i put rings
and jewelry on the counter.

i put a cake on the table
with a knife
and fork

beside it.
i unlock the liquor cabinet.

i leave my journal open
to be read
by anyone walking by.

full of my dreams and desires.

i leave a note and tell her,
your check

is on the counter, but please
whatever else
you need, take it.

it's yours.
