I first read that as 'The Checklists' -
of all the girls you two have got lined up
to die in slow and sadistic ways?
I've got a little list.... and they'll none of them be missed.... Chekists, Decemberists... they'll none of them be missed... once they've trudged over the Urals in winter..... they'll none of them be missed.... he he he....Makes me think of the film "the Checkists".

I think you guys are a couple episodes ahead of me here.
to suffer so ... trudging in the blinding wind and snow ... suffering unheard of indignities and brutality ... and never be missed ... how terribly sad.
I believe the reference is to the movie Chekist http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103949/ about the first incarnation of the Soviet secret police. It involves a Chekka death squad "sentencing" masses of people to death, then rounding them up, stripping them naked and shooting them in the back of the head.I first read that as 'The Checklists' -

I give up and close my eyes, trying to imagine myself somewhere else ... home in the Midwest, perhaps back in college ... fully clothed ... anything but naked.
Sometimes I try and imagine Barb fully clothed, too.
Then I give up and imagine something more likely, such as winning the lottery
A yet more remote contingency would be Barb writing a bad segment to a story....in several years of cfs I've never seen one and this was one of her best

"This Barb Moore doesn't seem to get the trouble she's in" the warden says. "Perhaps we need to take her to one of our rallies."
"But boss she could identify us to the Feds."
"I said take her to the rally. I didn't say anything about bringing the nigger lover back."
let's hope he was just idly musing...View attachment 319346 This doesn't bode well
a table already occupied by my friends, who promptly turn their heads away as though I have the plague.
"Hey, what's the matter?"
"Stay away from us Barb," says the nearest, "it's hard enough being here without your big mouth. You always make things worse for us."
She turns her back on me.
Fuck Barb theyre gonna kill ya sweetheart. Xxx10. Daybreak at Crux Hill Correctional Farm ... The sky is clear, temperature and humidity already on the rise. I have been hanging the entire night from one of the parade ground whipping posts. Tired, sore and naked, I wearily greet the dawn.
There is activity in the barracks. The prisoners are being roused for breakfast, morning roll call, and work assignments. The women file out of one barracks, men from the other, all headed for the mess hall.
A pair of matrons stride purposely across the parade ground. They've come to take me down. One wraps her arms around me to keep me from falling while the other releases my wrists.
Tentatively I take a step forward, but am weak and in need of support. The matrons take me by the arms and steer me to and through the mess hall door; and then to a table already occupied by my friends, who promptly turn their heads away as though I have the plague.
"Hey, what's the matter?"
"Stay away from us Barb," says the nearest, "it's hard enough being here without your big mouth. You always make things worse for us."
She turns her back on me. I shrug and focus on eating as much as I can before they send us out to muster on the parade ground.
That morning ritual consists of everyone lining up in ranks and counting off. The Warden then comes out, swaggers up and down the ranks as if on military inspection, and then stands off to one side as one of the guards reports on prisoners who earned demerits the previous day.
Two are identified as deserving punishment, quickly hauled over to the whipping posts by the guards, given half a dozen lashes each while we all watch, and returned to the ranks. Bad memories of my own whipping during the night flash through my mind.
Work assignments are given out. I and the other six "freedom rider" girls are assigned to a road crew. We are put in chains, loaded into the back of a truck, driven several miles cross country to a stretch of road partially washed out in a recent storm, and set to moving and spreading gravel.
View attachment 319330 We work naked under the blazing sun under the watchful eyes of the guards. Sweat stings my eyes as I toil away, bent over my shovel, back still sore from my whipping during the night, trying to do as little as possible while still appearing to be working hard.
My breasts dangle and sway, much to the delight of the guards, as I spread gravel delivered to me in a wheelbarrow by some of the other girls. A passing motorist sounds his horn and grins wolfishly out the open window of his vehicle at the naked chain gang girls slaving along the side of the road.
The hours pass, the sun reaches its zenith, and just as I think I might pass out from heat and exhaustion the overseer calls a halt. We are loaded back on the truck and driven back to the "Farm" for lunch. In the mess hall the others still ignore me. Ostracized, I sit at my own table and eat alone.
After lunch I am assigned along with just the other six "freedom rider" girls to a special detail. We are given picks and shovels and marched out to a patch of open ground beyond the perimeter fence. Several elongated piles of dirt suggest the purpose of the place. We are ordered to dig seven fresh graves.
View attachment 319331 I start hacking at the hard sun-baked soil with my pick, my mind spinning with questions ... just as I am sure the minds of the other girls must be too. Seven graves? And what for? Who died? And is it just coincidence that we "freedom rider" girls number exactly seven?
Finally I can stand it no longer. I throw down my pick and turn on the red-necked overseer in the slouch hat, who has been standing behind me leering at the wiggling of my tight little ass as I dig.
"Listen you!" I shout, jabbing my finger in his startled face, "I want to know what's going on here! No one has tried escaping. The gallows are empty. Tell me just who these seven graves are for!"
Another guard comes racing up behind me, reaches out, grabs my arms and pins them behind my back. My pick falls to the ground. Before I can react I am spun around to face the overseer who has hustled over from where he had been leaning against a tree just moments ago.
"The Warden warned me about you," he snarls, glowering at me, "said you'd be nothing but trouble. Well missy, we don't take no shit here."
The other girls watch, leaning on their shovels, as he calls two of his men over.
"Clem, Jake," he drawls, "this little Yankee slut-bitch is done for the day. Take her over and put her in a box for the rest of the afternoon. The others can finish digging the hole she's started."
Clem and Jake take me by the arms and literally carry me, cursing, legs kicking, through the perimeter fence to the parade ground and over to one of the tall corrugated metal boxes that stand near the whipping posts.
Jake holds me in front of the box while Clem wrestles with the lock. Then the door swings open on its rusted hinges. A blast of super-heated air escapes.
"Now in ya go, drawls Jake giving me a shove, and watch out for the sides; they'll be hot enough to fry an egg on by this time in the afternoon. Be a shame to burn those nice titties."
I step into a cramped space no more than a couple feet or so on a side ... Just enough room to stand without touching the hot metal walls. The door slams shut. I hear the rattle of the lock outside and Clem and Jake jabbering at each other as they walk away.
It's dark inside. The air is stifling and reeks of rust and and a lingering stale smell of urine. I gingerly touch one of the walls with my toe and withdraw it quickly. Jake was right about the walls!
Hours pass. I feel faint. I call for help and am startled at how my voice reverberates inside the metal walls. No one hears me or cares. I want to move my limbs, but I can't. My body is covered with sweat. I have to pee. I have no choice. It runs down my legs.
End of the day ... I am close to fainting when I hear the sound of truck motors and voices. The work details are returning, the prisoners are mustering on the parade ground.
Someone is fiddling with the lock. The door opens. A hand reaches in, grabs me by the hair and pulls. I fall out and sprawl on the ground.
I lie there through the muster. The prisoners trudge off to the mess hall. I lift my head slowly, to stare at the Warden's polished shoes, and then up his trouser legs to his angry face.
"You never learn do you Moore?" he observes, shaking his head.
I groan and lay my head back down in the parade ground dust.
View attachment 319332 Turning to a couple of his men who stand expectantly by, he shouts, "Take Miss Moore down to the cellar, string her up by the ankles, and administer a flogging our little troublemaker is not likely to forget."
