    Are you assessing yourselfbecause you are certainly not, or are you tossing it out, bandying it, consumption, fodder?   Chum?

Offering  so it can be thought of

                                     I havent considered tha in a while

Maybe Im hopeful of a domino effect

    Considering . . considering it?

                                      Or maybe.

It’s me who thinks you do because we spend a lot of time together and you far less than me with others.

You are my human

                      My touchstone

I don trust anyonebut  I have an inkling of trust in you

    An inkling?

However the window you gaze through is small.
