The Nautical Suicide

A short Story by Lucy.

The man involved with nautical endevours was quite apt at tying knots.
On the seventeenth day of August, he decided to commit suicide.
Nautical man juxtaposed his skill with his intention.
Nautical man tied an infallible noose.

However, being the seventeenth day of November, there is some time for nautical man to reconsider.
Indeed, his noose knot may be infallible, but the rope itself is prone to being knawed on by rats.

So this story ends being a mystery: Is nautical man going to be fond of rats or not in nine months time?
