Allegation of moonlight: A poem by Somoy Shafi about social awareness
Allegation of the Moon
You ruined all, social media
Our souls, our soils, our songs-
You messed up everything
Our origins, our roots, our golden stories-
You blemished all these
So many allegations against you
The moon said you are the main disgrace
to taint her elegant face
So no evening star is mesmerized with her rise
Oceans said you robbed all octopuses’ brains
So they forgot life lane
The wind said you polluted her air
So clouds forgot how to shed tears
Dust said you dirtied her dust
So there is a new generation lust
kingfishers said you corrupted her music
So nobody travels in the inner street
Rainbows said you damaged her reputation
So for sunlight, there is no longer any fixation
Tell me where do I keep all these accusations?
Tell me, O social media!
From all these allegations-
Where is our liberation?
Butterflies said we’re now on the verge of a great erosion
Help this civilization from this degeneration
Lift your inner gate before we are late
You need to hurry up before things turn into wild and rough
-Somoy Shafi
