A sentence using excoriate?

Answer:
Skin excoriated, James continued limping from his burning house, ignoring the intense pain of the raw flesh under his feet scraping against the asphalt of the road.

-OR-

In response to my son's defiance of me right in front of everyone at the restaurant, I immediately proceeded to excoriate him on his continued habit to wipe boogers from his nose under desks and tables even at his adult age of twenty-two years.

Excoriation used to mean the action of skin getting ripped off, though metaphorical usage has allowed the word to evolve to mean a good old brutally-insulting yell-fest.
