Sense Sonnet - Acher

"Sunny"

Martha "Sunny" von Bulow died.
Society heiress who made
Sensational headlines worldwide,
As a victim who was betrayed
By a husband who went on trial
For attempted murder of her.
She was tended to in high style,
As the story of her did stir
In the tabloids and movie screens,
Until the public's thirst was gone.
But Sunny stayed behind the scenes,
Oblivious to what went on.

Comatose for 28 years,
Her death finally interferes.
