People gathered round the injured man like a chorus of bees.
The man who'd turned a guitar into a weapon sagged with self-hatred and remorse.
A woman entered the room. She said, "Hey, that's my guitar."
The man who had been struck by the guitar looked deeply perplexed by recent events. His head bled, and the wound looked like a wet, red flower. "O," he said.
