It started on a Sunday.
Sunday was the Lords day, and Gerald being a religious man got up early and dressed to get ready for church.
His trailer was small and all he could find were his denim dungarees, raggy old t shirt and $14 Walmart white sneakers.
"These'll do" he remarked to his make believe wife.
The dummy in the corner dressed in dolls clothes didn't answer him, in fact she never did.
The incident happened on the way to church.
Gerald was walking along the sidewalk, he scratched his beard and saw a group of 11 year old boys walking towards him.
Gerald started sweating, he was a frail old man and scared of these boys.
The leader of the boys said 'You old man, Imma gonna beat you'
The boy swing a haymaker at Gerald which landed on his glass jaw.
Gerald went down in a heap crying and wailing like a banshee.
"Don't hit me boys, please please"
The boys laughed as they booted Gerald to Kingdom come.
After 10 minutes they ran off, leaving Gerald crying on the sidewalk, his frail body a wreck and his mind even more tortured than before
