The butcher’s shop..

Is it an analogy of what the world has become today?...Is the world on the brink of transforming into one like it?..or was it always so?

He wakes up every morning saying silent prayers to his God, “Dear Lord, may the count of those I behead , multiply, so that I can take back the best that I could for my beloveds.”

He briskly gets ready for the day and makes his way to the poultry, collects some good ones, and proceeds to his dingy little shop on his squeaky, tattered bicycle. The long queue of customers waiting outside his shop thrills him. He performs his duty with unfazed enthusiasm….slays one after another. At the end of the day the dividends that he earns for all the blood letting, leaves him content. He returns home and takes a stuffy dinner with his family and goes to sleep. But before that he does not forget to convey his gratitude to his God for the day and looks forward to another fulfilling day at work…..

Now the story from the eyes of those who fall prey to the poor butchers daily antics. The poor butcher is no more poor. To them he is a monster who gorges some of their innocent mates everyday… And they live in the terror of the day when it will be their turn to be put to the alter.

There also exists a third party,of those who avidly devour on the corpses and hold a justifiable conviction for doing so?..

The scene rakes up many rhetorics?....Is the bloodshed truly hateful and calls for no mercy for the butcher, who is just making an honest effort to support his people?...Are there set of people existing on the same planet who rejoice such a carnage and bank on it for their ephemeral satisfaction??...And not to forget,is the plight of those who fall prey to the butcher’s knife. Are they being engulfed by the stroke of time or destiny?or perhaps, they are making up for some ill-deed of their past life...Is it because of their inconsequential dimensions, if seen on the canvas of the entire creation, that their suffering goes unnoticed and unheeded?...Could one among the supposed victim, come up and look into the predicament, giving it a much likeable direction?...
