54 times.  That's how many times they bit me.  They had their way with me.  I have the scars to prove it.  I want to say welts but it sounds ugly.  Left me a wretched nervous wreck.  I can't say I don't say a little bit back to them each time.  They got the best of me though.  I caught a look at my body—yea, I caught a look.  I never been bit this good in my life.
