The only time that text can be used to trim anything is in the hatch commands. If you pick a piece of text, along with the linework for the boundary of the hatch area, then the hatch pattern will skip over the text rather than going through it.
As a normal Trim command, text can not be used as one of the trimming entities.
As Richard mentioned, the Break command is easy to use and will allow you to get results that should work for you.
