City Series – Rishel Choudhury in Delhi, We the Isolationists (231st Corona Diary) Corona Diary by The Delhi Walla - April 23, 20200 Our corona diary. [Text and photo by Rishel Choudhury] I close my eyes in self-isolation from corona… and I see The highway to the desert From our city Marches on The long queue of silhouettes Moving slowly But steadily Over them to the horizon The setting sun Man, woman or child Old or young They form a rythme Like that of wilderness In a deserted palace. Lying naked On the barren land of humanity A dust storm came hurriedly from the desert To burry our city Deep at night My body will become a mirror of glowing stars – Permanent keepsake of temporary humanity. “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.
