excerpt from "the Book of Daniel"

She had been judged and her punishment was brutal. He kicked her to the floor with every ounce of strength in his 6 foot 2 tall, 300 pound frame and then again and again until at least a dozen blows had been squarely delivered. She'd only really felt the first one.
He stepped on her fingers until they cracked then pulled her head up off the floor by the matted mess that had once been her fancy do. He looked into her eyes and said "Never lie to me again Baby" and punched her head back down.
The guests had all scattered like roaches in the daylight. Not one of them could have helped her, even if they'd wanted to.
