Transparency

One person's transparency is not the same as another's, I've noticed.

When is transparency
An insult
A compliment
Or maybe
In between?
I believe it depends
On the speaker
At least as much
As the listener.
Sometimes it hangs in the air
Until it lands
Softly
Or with a thud.
This may take days
Or weeks.
Thank you
For your transparency
She said.
I may wonder
Until weeks go by.
Then
I will stop
Wondering,
Until of course
Next time.
