City Series – Afsar Zaidi in Bombay, We the Isolationists (178th Corona Diary) Corona Diary by The Delhi Walla - April 11, 20200 Our corona diary. [Text and photo by Afsar Zaidi] I close my eyes in self-isolation from corona… and I see An image of people hurrying From one place to another Yet, there is a certain stillness In them Seems like a painting Of myriad colours Mish Mash of designs Yet, there is something soothing Emanating out of the canvas My eyes remain shut Can sense a lot of restlessness All around I am tempted to open my eyes Although don’t want to break the reverie The union of chaos and calmness Surrounds me And I realise am being taught By nature The necessity of being In action via inaction. “We the Isolationists” series urges folks from any part of the world to share a brief diary starting with “I close my eyes in my self-isolation from Corona… and I see…” Not more than 100 words.
