she had faith in me
she said
the problem was
I had little faith
in her faith
in that faith in me
having had previous
poor form
for backing the wrong pony
good form
in barking up the wrong trees
& if she had taste
would obviously
not wear what she wore
listen to the shit she did
so I thanked her nicely
& stuck with my own faith
what will be will be
& trust
if effort has effect
