>He didn't know that afternoon that the ground was waiting to become another grave in just a few short days. To bad he couldn't unhang himself and take that rope down and untie that noose and have it coil itself back up as if it had never been opened and tied into a noose.
>He wished the rope was back in its packaging on the shelf with its brother and sister ropes in the hardware store and he had just walked by the store on that rainy September afternoon and never gone inside.
>If only he had bought a hamburger instead of a rope. There was a restaurant right next to the hardware store. They had very good hamburgers. He would sit there at the counter, holding it in his hands with tears streaming down his cheeks. The waitress would be looking away because she does not like to see men crying when they are eating hamburgers and also she doesn't want to embarrass anyone.
>He is the only customer in the restaurant.
>She doesn't need this.
>She has her own problems.
>Her boyfriend left her last week for a redhead from Chicago. This is the second time in a year this has happened to her. She can't believe it. It has to be more than a coincidence. How many redheads are there in Chicago?
>She takes a rag and cleanss up an imaginary stain far down the counter, wiping up something spilled that isn't there.
