Study in Black

Richard Schnap

She is as sad
As a sunflower
With a dark cloud
That hangs above

Born from the womb
Of a maddened mother
Whose face she hasn’t
Seen for a year

And the pills that
They have given her
Fail to brighten
Her endless night

As a sharp knife
Becomes a key
To release her from
The cage of herself
