No one talks to me... I'll continue anyway....
At the Tree’s Women’s Correctional and Execution Facility it is hanging day. Barb, Belle, and Diane will be hanged before their sister prisoners and more importantly the paying crowd and important guests and dignitaries. Of course the gallows are brand new and have yet to be tested. Tree is a professional and soon after sunrise he has three other condemned women prisoners brought to the gallows to test the new structure. The women are marched to the just-built scaffold chained in a coffel.
The three women are the first hanged from the new gallows. Tree is pleased the gallows not only held but all three women took more than ten minutes to quit kicking. He also is satisfied all three purged their bowels and bladders as they hanged. Overall he knows the hangings later today will be quite successful.
He saunters to the cell were Barb, Belle, and Diane waits their fate. They are naked and chilled in the stone chamber. It is before 8 AM when Tree arrived and he is not a morning person. He is even less couth than his worse drunken night. He lights up a Marlboro and sips from his drink. He says “Welcome to your last morning, bitches. I hope you are ready to hang today!”
“That’s not even clever, Tree” I say.
“Perhaps but concerning likes there can be no dispute. However Belle the facts don’t change. The three of you will be hanged later today” Tree says. “When they come to get you I suggest you cooperate and follow every order. If you don’t your hanging will be worse than you can imagine and your sisters waiting to hang will know the same will happen for their executions. Do you understand?”
I speak for the others and say “You do what you need to do to us. Don’t take what we do out on others.”
“That’s more than I can promise. You girls behave. That is their best hope” he replies as he staggers off.
I ask Barb and Diane what we should do. Diane says “I shot my lover’s balls off in his office and blew his secretary a kiss as I left. I did what I did and wasn’t too hard to track down. If they want to beat me all the way to the gallows I will walk to the noose the whole way.”
She is taking this better than I am…
-Belle South
As noted above Tree is more concerned about his bottom line than thevictims condemned women he executes. He has the Barb, Belle, and Diane collared and chained between two stout posts. For four hours until mid-afternoon the women groped and pawed by those important guests and dignitaries while they stand helpless with their hands cuffed behind their backs. It is still mid-afternoon when the crowd leaves. The cuffs are removed and the women are released from the posts.
It is made clear to them that when the collars are removed their wrists will be tied behind their backs and they will be led to gallows. Any insubordination will hurt both them and women following them. It is one at a time the women are taken to gallows.
My wrists are bound behind my back far tighter than need be to prevent my escape. An iron collar is locked around my neck and I am led by a chain lead from this dungeon.
I walk past the silent row of prison women and into the jeering mob of paid customers and guests that grope my naked body. They seem unimpressed I am on my final walk.
-Barbara Moore
Belle is next…
I did everything I have been convicted of except driving the car through the school zone 137 miles per hour in the zone. I was shouting ‘Drive faster; they are catching us!’
It doesn’t matter. They are going to hang me soon. I hate my ‘sisters’ have to watch my march…
-Belle
And last there is Diane…
I am led from my cell. My wrists are bound so tight my fingers are buzzing already. I look down my body knowing soon my feet will be swinging freely as I hang from my neck.
I step out of the prison and my wrists are bound painfully behind my back. Bull grabs my jaw and says “Remember, Diane, do what you are told. Tree knows where your sister is if you don’t.”
-Diane
It seems like a good day so far…
