Mooncake Festival


Does the immortal Chang Er exist?
Does the legendary hare exist?
Yet the myth doesn't display any indication
I see Paris Hilton instead of the immortal Chang Er
I see Mashi Maro instead of the legendary hare

Mooncake of savoury fillings
Catered our tastebuds
Flickers of the lanterns
Of cartoon characters and animals
Rays of hope enlighten the night of tranquility

The moon
The big rock in the sky
Shone upon the horizon
Amidst the darkness of the genial night
Engulfed the world with light and hope

Standing in its embrace
I gazed the way it shone
Upon the horizon of mine
Inadvertently my eyes could, and did
Shined in the shattered world
Leading to the oasis of hysterics
