Came across this postbox at Raja Annamalaipuram during my evening walk. Reminded me of Shelley’s Ozymandias. The mighty postbox which over the years served as a portal that kept millions of relationships in tact looks like a superhero during his twilight years. The postbox’s fate is worse than the statue of Ozymandias which survived while nothing around it remained except the desert sand. The world around the postbox has flourished and moved on relegating the postbox to a relic.
