in queue

There are lot of people waiting. I wonder if there are actually standing or sitting or squatting.. But it seems there were all waiting. Almost stretching out their hands,.. and they stand one after another , in a queue. And along that line they stretch out their hands , for those things to come to pass.

Those things come at quite a speed, blades and all, coming fast towards the queue of reaching out hands... and it slices off . Those who did not reach out far enough only get part of their fingers sliced off, those who did far enough managed to get their hands sliced off. Thus shortening their reach. But these people are consistent. After some time, they will grow back these hands and start reaching out again, and those things would come and redo the slicing over again.
