A rose for Emily

this is a stroy about a woman that lives all alone wit dead people in her house.  It is really creepy and dark.  There are a lot of things that go on during this storyt that could be inturperted and looked more closely at.  One of the chracters the buttler is very mysterious and no one really knows why he puts up with Emily and her odd behaviors.  I think that he feels badfor her and that he has just always been there and does not see the need to all of a sudden just leave her.  He might also be in love with her or just even be lonely himself and enjoys the company.  There is also this golden watch that is mentioned a few times in the story.  It is invisible and you can hear the ticking.  I am not sure what this is suppose to symbolize but it is metioned at least twice thorughout the story.
