None of the ladies seem as remorseful as I thought they would be...

Tree isn't a defense attorney, only a good professional crucifer ... but it could be linked, in fact !View attachment 554412Tree is as poor a judge of women as he is a defense attorney.
Nice rendering of a victim’s thoughts and feelings as she is nailed and raised. Well done, Tree!
Thanks, it's good to be writing again!Nice rendering of a victim’s thoughts and feelings as she is nailed and raised. Well done, Tree!
...and to you also!!!And good to have the Tree-exercise-texts back.
As the cross swings up Messa’s body slides down the stipe until her arms are pulled straight between the spikes and her shoulders. The pain from the spikes twisting in her wrists seems intolerable but then the cross begins its fall into hole. It bottoms with a hard thud and her body swings out stopped only by the three spikes in her wrists and feet.
Tree doing what he does best!This crucifixion is not like my Anjou Tours™ or even being crucified for Madame Judith’s parties. While those are taxing events they are in a controlled environment. This is not in my control at all! I am in the middle of the seven woman chain and am being marched to be nailed to a cross. My bare feet scream in pain as they tread over sharp stones. If any of us dare hesitate all of us are whipped!
We arrive at the hill top and the chains are removed from my neck and I am hustled to a cross. Two guards wrestle me onto a cross even as I beg them to take it easy.

They don’t and quickly I find my bum parked on the stipe of a cross I am to be nailed to! I try to catch my breath but a guard grabs my hair and orders me to stretch out and accept my fate.

There is nothing to be gained by resisting. I slide down the stipe and surrender my arms. Everyone around me is in costume of Roman times in Judea and the surrounding are like a movie set of that era. Little did I know this is how they dress in whatever part of the world I am in and the area is not a screen setting! This is how they live!
I of course have been crucified before but never nailed to a cross. It doesn’t take long but the best I can describe is I have never felt such pain as the square spikes were driven through my wrists. I lay on the cross unaware they are positioning my feet over the stipe for the third spike.

As bad as the spikes through my wrists were, the spike driving through my feet overshadows even the pain from my wrists being nailed! I slowly come around realizing what has been done to me. Searing pain runs from my limbs and consumes me with agony. I try to move before I find I am one with the cross. Oh, how do I hurt!

Ropes are fixed to the cross beam and guards prepare to raise me with the cross. There is an inhuman howl to my left as Laetitia’s cross slams into the hole. This is going to be bad I think as they lift the cross.

Time and place is meaningless. I am hanging from spikes nailed to a cross. What happens now?

There is no sense to be found in the barbaric crucifixions inflicted upon these women by the statesmen of the the Northwest Arkansas tribe. While sane people will abhor these brutal executions the tribe watches the women's torturous deaths entertained by their suffering. And it is not just the men entertained by their agony. Slave women and servants wonder what it would take to suffer the the same fate!Nobody, if he (she) hasn't lived that, can describe what are thesewonderf... horrible sufferings that a nailed crucifixion is bringing to the body !!!
Like I said " I try to move before I find I am one with the cross. Oh, how do I hurt!" : one with this piece of wood ! But how people could imagine such a kind of execution ?!!!
Tree, I've nothing against you : be sure that I pardon you , you're so much professional into your work so much quickly done !
Perhaps that it's my fault : I was so much dreaming of this crucifixion and so much waiting to it ...
Now, I'm raising up to these crowd : some are benevolent and pitying me ... some other are teasing, even telling that I deserve !
Anyway, I'm there, now, for many hours : I cant forget my pain, only trying to be accustomed with it ...
I'll be proud , if I can ... I can doubt ... It's so much awful !!!

Quit whining, Messa; she went to the hospitality tent for dinner. She'll be back...Perhaps to write some text ?
....... I'm hopelessly searching my Judith among the crowd , but she's even not there !

Possibly the best part - that first touch of wood to bare bottom. The moment of anticipation as she is laid back. Hot stuff.Two guards wrestle me onto a cross even as I beg them to take it easy.

I walk up to Barb’s cross. She looks damn good for being nailed to it as long as she has been. Yeah, she shows a bit of wear but crucifixion will do that to anyone. I look up and ask how she’s doing.
“How the hell do you think I am doing” I yell at him. “I’m nailed to this damn thing to die and you can’t even get that done right!”
“I had nothing to do with what happened here” he replies. “I just happened by and stopped to look.”
I watch him walk away and cry “You can’t leave me here!”
It's easy when one uses good subject matter!Nice post, Tree!
