Decomposes (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rots

'decomposes' is the definition.
('rot' can be a synonym of 'decompose')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rots that I've seen before include "Decays" , "Decomposes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, the Universal, The Star Tribune, the Evening Standard and The Wall Street Journal.
