I don’t know what to do about Sinead.
I worry about her
and want her to be safe.
I want her happy
and comfortable
for the rest of her days
but really
I would rather she funnel
her madness
into something extraordinary.

I want her dangerous.
I want her furious.
I want her to be everything
she has been
and more so.

I wish
Sinead could be both ecstatic
and amazing
but if I had to choose one
I know which way
I’d go.

Please forgive me
Sinead
and make the best choice for you
– and please forgive me, God,
but keep her mad.
