City Series - Mayank Austen Soofi, We the Isolationists (1st Diary)

Our corona diary.

[Text and photos by Mayank Austen Soofi]

I close my eyes in my self-isolation from corona… and I see Mummy Papa. Looking at them I try to recall how they used to look like when I was a little child.

And now I’m walking in a crowded street in an unfamiliar city, though the people in it look vaguely familiar.

Now I’m in a garden; a chai vendor is pouring me chai in a white plastic glass.

And now I’m entering my office. Everything seems normal. I say hello to the receptionist. She smiles, and returns to her desktop.

“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. With a horizontal-sized selfie, along with your city name… please mail to me at mayankaustensoofi@gmail.com.
