Epidemic-and-Me

How epidemic can affect a humanbeing?

For every humanbeing, any epidemic like situation is a "Rat's alley, where the dead men lost their bones" the voice is suppressed as humanbeing isn't having that much courage to speak and not having that loud voice as there is no room for stimulation. It is like: "Sweet Thames run softly for I speak not loud or long". But It happens at times, though we're as such but the surroundings as something which seems to be as "being for others" if given much importance, and if not it will have smooth way of running like "sweet thames".

The situation was like: "the living is now dead" and "those who were living are now dying with a little patience". For those who fail to retain hope for them the very situation is like hopelessness so they may succumbed to death and others in ignorance as failing to understand the situation, now dying with little patience and those who dictates the very notion of 'the survival of the fittest' like "Dr. Rieux" in the plague, "The white whale" in 'mobydick', "Mr. Utterson" in 'the strange case of Dr. Jeckyll and Mr. Hyde', "Santiago" in 'The old man and the sea' etc. If find there may be many examples as such, unconcerned of if it is whether fictional or non-fictional or based on day to day life. Those rather than succumbing to any tempted situation, will have its alternative to fight out and come out victoriously.

Having seen the outline above of corona crisis and epidemic, I would like to share my experience during lockdown, in poetic version...

Epidemic hasn't much affected my life, but It provided some outlook to look into the life. Epidemic can't only be characterized with the spread of disease, that is going to affect large  scale people. As it is related to infectious, it can be anything, prime thing which one can focus on is, if it is having the tendency of "affecting". Any situations, circumstances, influences can affect, negatively or positively. While it depends on the very tendency of human nature, how one can perceive this, and use it for specific outlet.

Epidemic Poetics
White ring, circling the deep blackening shadow;
Proceeding in dense, without the measuring whereabouts;
In an unending process,
Just bouncing back and forward, but not progressing ahead.
Approaching gradually,
A volcano comet, pierces into
Neither attracting nor detaching;
Remaining up slight from the surface level, pointing the target, swifts fiercely but patiently into the magnetic yet distancing forces;
That can't attract nor detach..

Thus was my experience that I came to confront in corona like situation. Which is actually the advent of realization in my life.


Thankyou..
