Day 1 Do not pity the fool for his predicament. The fool put himself in this predicament and does not deserve a way out. No mercy for the wicked is all that he will know for the rest of his soon to be shortened life. His life will be significantly shorter, not because of […]

Day 2 The room is dark, not a shred of light is getting in. I stand naked in the pitch black shaking with fear. I know what is coming, I’ve been here before. I may not be able to see my hand in front of my face but I know where I am. The chair […]
