City Series – Furquan Khan in New York, We the Isolationists (217th Corona Diary)

Our corona diary.

[Text and photo by Furquan Khan]

I close my eyes in self-isolation from corona… and I see New York!
and it is eerily quiet,
the blazing sirens break the silence – every now and then,
the glittering light over the iconic Empire State is flickering in blood-red color,
In the words of Frank Sinatra,
“If I can make it there,
I’ll make it anywhere It’s up to you,
New York, New York”
and Corona has truly made it here,
like nothing, the city had ever seen –
quite like the king of the hill, top of the heap!!!
stay inside, stay safe,
yours truly,
~ not so proud ~ New York, New York!!!
