The Prisoner

Outside she’s lead

with arms bound behind,

all eyes are cast

she’s now a freak show.

 

A lowlife she is

the prisoner removed,

she’s led in this room

where patients await.

 

She flickered and winced

losing herself,

never again

can she trust herself.

 

Take them away

far far away,

children astray

she can’t look their way.

 

Never again.
