Sickness is my latest Paramore
She is more attentive
Less fickle
She sticks like late season honey to the insides of my fever dream
A purple moth with nectarine probiscis
She hears my chest rise and fall
Like carefully tilted chess pieces
Will release balance and find
Greater purchase in uneven defeat
Yet
I remain undefeated
As if by whim
A last horrah
Like a Rosy cheeked girl with retrouse buttocks
Tips her mirth at the crowd
Who in unisen rise
Fat, thin, butter fingered and pianist
To cheer her abandon
As I turn my hot cheeks your way
Facing one another in the skeleton of dawn
I see your need of me
So insate and thundering
And though selfish mayhaps
I entreat
Pick another
I spent much time unraveling
Yet I remain
Stubborn and glassy eyed
A drunk patient of witchery
Somebody without many pockets
Containing Combs and honey

This is what I put on Candice’s blog:
So relieved to read this poignant piece. It is quite amazing that, not much more than an hour ago, I e-mailed you because I was so concerned – then you answer with brilliance

Brilliance! What a perfect word for her and that post. I had emailed her the day before and was thrilled to get a response followed soon by this post. She is so dear and such a good writer! She takes the immense and deep hurts in her and turns them into briiluance time and time again! Perhaps you should email her often Derrick!!! 😊❤️❌⭕️

As do I! I adore Candice and she writes some amazing stuff that comes from the deep hurts in her. Just like the ones in you and me! So see what I told you about writing about yours. It tells people you are real and it opens doors to do God’s so well!!! Let’s both keep her lifted up in prayer. She needs them so much. I also email her to check on her and let her know that we car!!! Hope you are ok today and that you have a marvelous day!!!❤️❤️❤️ xoxoxo
