My grandmother said she saw some kids kick a man’s head down the street back when there was a lot of crazy shit happening in Nicaragua. So I just thought about how that might have went down.
It might be interesting to compose a list of possible crimes or wrongs which would merit being decapitated by a man with a machete (New Cooking Show idea? Man With A Machete: Justice Served? And then of course, having the head kicked around in the street like a ball. That'd be quite a crime you'd have to commit for that but we could probably start the list with paedophiles, no? After due process of course, we aren't savages, after all :) (sorry, I live in Paris, land of the guillotine where they probably did something like this already in the late 18th century...)
Brutal, but evenly handled. I liked the way you passed off the perspective. Nicely done!
Thanks for reading it!
Good lord Ray so gruesome but good. Not sure how I missed this one~
because of the bad original title!
My inbox says “Futbol Memories”. True I would have read “Bad Head” sooner. I’m slow to open sometimes but you are too good to skip.
It was my first choice but I thought I’d try to be mature or whatever. Never again!
A HEAD OF THE GAME...pretty gory...compelling
I never regret opening one of your stories, but this one was borderline (for all the best reasons)! Where did this idea spring from, if I can ask?

Jesus 😳. Kind of hoped it wasn't based anywhere near reality. People can really be assholes. Thanks for sharing!
To be fair, we don’t know what the guy did. 🤷🏻
Haha true. Not sure anyone deserves that though!

Speaking of guillotine and Paris, the image is supposedly Robespierre.
Awesome opening paragraph!
