Dharma Era

Chongtham Ronikumar

In the aftermath of
Kali Yuga,
Write what you are.
Become what you have learned.
You sound
Like the world
That has been raising you
In any society.

Moral loss works out.
It will not hide in any pause,
As lessons written from long ago,
In your books and others' textbooks.
Society trains anyone
Like a helpful mirror
From what we enjoy each day.
Live with less corruption.

To live honestly
To avoid harsh conflicts
To gather consensus
These are the best ways.
On any screen you play a role,
Words whispered with faces bright
But when fate pulls down the curtain,
Your true shelves come into the light.
