Leap Year

It is the time when burning is the order of the day. Smouldering smoke darkens the horizon. The blue of sky reminds the blues of times. The scarred remains provide a scary spectacle. The charred life provokes a restlessness. Listlessness is in the air. World convulses in Corona. Virulence of man-made virus is hailed ‘’Novel.” World is diseased and is revolting. Insanity trumps sanity. No wonder, this year is leaping, not up in ecstasy, but down in despondency.
