A Rose for Emily

A Rose for Emily

She married and unmarried, but never had love,

She wanted to buy arsenic

To decimate the rats

She married another man

Whom she actually pretty loved

But in the end, the man died smiling

With her strand of hair besides

She died a mysterious death, but there was no rats in her house

She probably used the arsenic to try to end HER LIFE

But that ain’t the case, since the villagers proved it

So instead we worship Emily because she died a great death.
