grotesque but would be kings and queens need to have that fear in them

all would be monsters need to know that you will still hear and see for long after your head is separated from your neck

this is the punishment for the crimes against humanity

wonder if they could still move their eyes and mouth for as long as there was oxygen left in the blood

in the historic account, the guys eyes were clearly moving in reaction to the doctor's voice

one other time I remember that someone described the persons head as stuck in a scream but no sound came out
