Long Before Corona, Quartet 2

HUMAN HORIZON : from Madrid, Rome, Lisbon, Paris

from Tomiro's Diary : Friday 1:st of Sarsaparillo 2050

what could have been the 32:nd of Maredream



Today you found this unbelievably old quarantine, a basement where some humans have hide during thirty years, since turbulent 2020. They still think peculiar corona virus covid-19 fills Earth's lungs. While actually that collective monster disappeared after only three months. Tomiro, we made you give them our retroactive map (from Milano and Marseille, upto Gothenburg, between Putingrad and Trumptown) showing how many//few died everywhere. Extremely surprised these hairy androids became, 'cause they could've survived anyway!?!? Without dwelling under their house (more or less willingly imprisoned), this future would've reached them earlier.... maybe. Many food-chains collapsed by socio-economical, pure distrust.
