The lockdown realization

Seen on the Internet: “My God I’ve been on self lockdown since this 16 March 2020.In a period of 15 months I only went out of house for errands, government transactions, and vaccination.” It’s that moment when you realize that you’ve wandered into a dungeon.

I have watched this famous island descending incontinently, fecklessly the stairway which leads to a dark gulf. It is a fine broad stairway at the beginning, but after a bit the carpet ends. A little further on there are only flagstones, and a little further on still these break beneath your feet.
