Too Much Studying Can Kill You
© Colleen Madonna Williams
Oh, sweet Mary, oh don't you cry for me... I found your head pinned to the wall and now I've gone crazy...
Oh sweet, Mary, oh don't you cry for me, the butcher came to get you, and he is still roaming free..." Poor Mary. If only she had stopped studying for one evening and ventured out to see her friend's play, then perhaps she would still be alive and Susan would still be sane. Who knows? Just be careful if you ever hear a strange voice singing...
"Oh, Susanna, oh don't you cry for me..." accompanied by a steady dripping sound that you can't quite identify. Adapted from an urban legend by Colleen Madonna Flood Williams. C.2001
