I grabbed him by the
hair, bit his face, his nose.
My ankles still taped to the chair
removed itself,
when they strapped my
arms to the chair.
As he hollered to the top of his
lungs for help,
I pushed forward with his face
still between my teeth,
then the chair broke!
After that my mission was to just
hurt him as much as I
could before, they killed me
But they needed me alive, they needed
us alive.

By Ted Decker "The Bone Man's Daughter"
