An Analogy of India's Independence

There's a parasite sucking your blood. He's been doing this for ages. He says to you: "You have an option to kick me hard and drive me away, but since you are non-violent and won't hit me, I have another option for you". "What plan do you have?", you ask. He says: "Following are my conditions, which, if you meet, I shall stop sucking your blood.

They are:

  1. I'll amputate one of your limbs of my choice.
  2. Some of my tentacles which I've shed during my moulting process, are sticking on your body. They are my property and and you'll have to buy that from me before I leave.
  3. Since your body has become used to me, and also, I somehow feel responsible for your well being, you'll have to assure me that it functions well in my absence."


You ask: "I never asked you to leave. Why so much fuss?" He says: "I'm tired of sucking your blood. Besides, your blood has now degraded in quality."

Cupid and the Poacher

Falling in love is easy, just like a trap, you go in and there's no way out.The poacher is cruel, never lets you go and yet you are gone. Where to, no one knows. He hurts you, may be its not his intention, but he doesn't care too if you are hurt. He carries you to the fire and slaughters you there, if he's merciful. Otherwise he just roasts you alive. And before doing that he never forgets to get himself snapped standing over you (or your corpse, whatever the case may be).

This has been happening for millennia. Cupid shoots, the prey falls (in love) , and the poacher tramples it and devours the flesh. Can't he be content eating vegetables?
