CURSE OF MOTHER GANGES
Poem by Chan Mongol
September 7 of 2020
It was not allowed to cross the holy river Ganges;
But I crossed and committed sins from those days.
Things could have been fair, much better there;
If I stayed in the side of my ancestors around the river.
I been paying for my sins and I lost my connectivity;
I have none left there to show me pity in my necessity.
I wanted to do my duty to make my kin happy;
But the tsunami of the Ganges sunk them due to me!
I often sing sad songs and melody to rinse my heart;
Sins filled my heart with smog, pollution and dirt.
I regret because, such a life of mine ended faster here;
Why didn't I domicile near the water of Ganges to do agriculture?
Ganges crawled to come to and cried not to leave her;
I didn't pay attention considering her tears as tap water.
It was not allowed to cross the holy river mother Ganges;
So, I was cursed without her holiness Ganges's bless!
