The Lamp at noon is about a woman who is trapped at home and who cannot escape the poverty that will eventually drive her insane.
The lamp at noon symbolizes that the complete opposite of what "should" be is not happening at all. Why would you light a lamp at noon unless there is something seriously wrong?
