Cheap Charlies

I feel like I’ve just read a short story. If it was that I’d have to impute a little callousness to the author, for not foregrounding the sorry fate of Graham the bar owner. Seems to me that the irony of his tilt towards morality being punished by the gods with a near fatal stroke the very next day is something almost fictional in its cruelty. But then the author -a skilled one, if this was a deliberate tactic- compounds the coldness of the universe by going back to what bothers us humans the most of all: our rights and entitlements with regard to a little fun!
