For an affair: Trust any man who is allergic to children, Carries a civil war in his eyes, travels a lot And speaks up when you are subjected To society's customary stone-throwing— This hero has a history of scandals. He keeps secrets like slave-girls. Trust this man to never let you down, Or stand you up, even if it involves Rising from the dead. Amen. For marriage: Trust a man only after you have dunked His head in buckets of freezing water. Trust all the truth spilling out of him When you have slipped, like soap on skin, Rusty pins under his toe-nails. Eyes wide open Trust him as you take him on an electric dance That makes his penis sing. Test him to trust him. Detest him to trust him. Trust a man through faith In all forms of torture, which is how men trust each other.
