What if the Mahabharata Had Social Media?
A Gen Alpha Poem
In a world where legends spark online debates,
The Mahabharata unfolds with digital updates.
Arjuna tweets, “Just took down my foe!
On to the next challenge—let the followers know!”
Kauravas flex muscles, posting memes with flair,
“#KurukshetraLive—come watch if you dare!”
Duryodhana crafts tales, “We’re the true champs,
While the Pandavas share stories, hoping to revamp.
“Archery tips and tricks—watch my aim soar!”
Arjuna blogs, “Just don’t ask about that time I missed before.”
Bhima whips up recipes, “Lift a mountain? Sure!
But if you want to feast, you’ll need more than just pure!”
Alliances form through TikToks and snaps,
“Join our brave cause!”—and maybe some claps.
WhatsApp buzzing, strategies bright,
“Let’s plot our next move—bring snacks, it’s a fight!”
But amidst the chaos, rumors spread fast,
“Divine weapons? Nah, that’s a blast from the past!”
With quick replies, they set the record straight,
Fact-checking’s the hero, keeping truth up to date.
Emotions run deep as stories unfold,
Bhima’s heartfelt tribute? Pure gold.
#WarriorsRemembered—tears in the feed,
Connecting their journeys, where courage takes heed.
And what of the gods in this social spree?
Krishna drops wisdom with a side of glee.
“Hey, Krishna, tips for the fight?” Arjuna might plead,
“Stay calm, my friend, and don’t spill the tea!”
Had social media graced that ancient stage,
The Mahabharata would dance on a digital page.
A tapestry woven with laughter and strife,
Where ancient tales meet our modern life.
So let’s raise our voices, let the stories take flight,
Join the digital epic, where legends feel right!
For even the ancients would love to engage,
In a world full of memes, wisdom, and stage.
Join the digital epic where legends meet likes,
And embark on new journeys on social media bikes!
