Global Village Poem by Mohammad Younus

They say we are living in a global village;
But G-village is where we can take a quick trip;
G-Village is where we can sit eye to eye;
G-Village is where we can talk face to face;
G-village is where we can chat, tweet, and...
...post on internet;
But, we are not living in a G-village...
...cause still I will keep on waiting for...
...the Internet to be restored by Government;
I have been waiting for far too long...
For the resurrection of my dead phone;
I have been at the home screen...
...eagerly waiting to give a gentle touch...
...to the slippery body of my smartphone;
Like a lover gently moving his fingers...
...through the silky hair of his beloved;
I hope the net-messiah shall soon return...
...life to the Dead-Net;
For I don't hear about my home, and...
...about my people,
Who will connect me to them?
Who will connect me to me?
If ever the firewalls must stand in between!
