“Patriotism 101: How To Murder Like A Pro (Sonnet 2445)

Murder is an art,
if you do it properly
you can not only get away,
but actually be praised for it.

First and foremost,
lock your brain and heart up
in the cupboard, you don't need them,

and join a military kennel, oops, I mean academy,
spend all your conscious days and nights
finding reasons to hate those beyond the border,

and you don't need to search hard, because
since you've already abandoned civilized senses,
your animal instincts would take over, and deliver
you the enemy as per the government requirement -

you just need to make sure that, never for a second
you must let the human in you take charge, because
if it does, that's the end of all patriotic glory.”
Abhijit Naskar, Sonnets From The Mountaintop

“Every time I hear a government insist on developing weapons that could massacre millions in self-defense, I start wondering who the real terrorists are!”

“Drunken Humanitarian (Sonnet)

Go, get drunk, my friend!

Get so drunk with a vision unseen,
even monsoon begins to cry!
Get so drunk with an unbent cause,
even bosons bow to thy might!

Get so drunk with incorruptibility,
you emerge a walking Wardencliffe.
Get so drunk with accountability,
no Rorschach can analyze your spirit.

Get so drunk with uncontaminated justice,
every government keeps a file on you!
Get so drunk with untainted love,
conclaves convene to decipher you!

Any ape can find salvation in liquid escape,
takes a human to endure through devastation.
Any rodent of the gutter can drown in alcohol,
it takes a giant to drink the world's poison.”
Abhijit Naskar, The Divine Refugee

“Earthistani - The Unpatriot Anthem (2505)

There is only one nation I give a damn about,
there is only one religion I give a damn about,
there is only one tradition I give a damn about,
there is only one culture I give a damn about -

there is only one scripture I give a damn about,
there is only one constitution I give a damn about,
there is only one sacred I give a damn about,
there is only one science I give a damn about -

the scripture I heed is conscience,
the constitution I heed is backbone,
the science I practice is service,
the sacred I hold is oneness -

marham na mazhab dekhe,
marham na dekhe mulk,
la medicina no ve la fe,
my existence is the proof -

the culture I carry is integration,
the tradition I carry is tolerance,
the religion I carry is reformation -
armed with a hundred billion nerve cells,
here I stand Human, My Nation, Earthistan!”

“Either Border or Human
(Sonnet 2506)

In a planet of apes,
if you want power and control,
all you have to do is sell fear -
sell fear, blood, rage, the lot -

if you are in politics sell fear,
if you are in religion sell hate,
if you are in cinema sell rage,

but never call them by their real name,
always package it in modern language,
package bloodshed as patriotism,
package fanaticism as tradition,
package derangement as righteousness.

That's enough ape talk, now hear the human speak:
there is no place for nationalism in science,
there is no place for fanaticism in holiness,
there is no place for hate-commerce in arts,
there is no place for borders in consciousness.”
Abhijit Naskar, Hazrat-e Humanity: The Uncultured Polyglot

“The Naskar Controversy (Sonnet 2525)

Yes, Naskar is a controversial figure,
not because I sell antivaxx nonsense,
not because I sell eugenics nonsense,
not because I sell patriotic garbage,
not because I sell newage garbage, in fact,
these are the very germs my life disinfects -

I am controversial because my backbone
doesn't seek validation from no institution,
either faith based or intellectual -

I am controversial because the planet of apes
cannot quite figure out the sectarian membership
of my post-discipline, post-dogma, post-cultural,
post-national, post-fanatic, post-algorithmic mind -
and anything that apes cannot understand, apes mistrust,
not just apes of ritual, but also apes of intellect.

I am controversial because I ask for tolerance,
I am controversial because I'm integration incarnate,
I am controversial because I call for humanity,
at the expense of both faith and facts.”
Abhijit Naskar, Hazrat-e Humanity: The Uncultured Polyglot

“My divinity, my design -
my truth, my decision -

“Human is a pious promise,
not host to parasitic paranoia.
Earth is my homerock, sky is my robe -
End of tribe is birth of culture.”

“The Naskar Anthem
(Sonnet 2554-2555)

Heir to no throne,
no crown on my head,
tearing up borderly lies,
I burn as the lamp of aid.

I hold no flag,
yet I raise nations,
I stand as rebel guard,
humanizing inoculation.

Rocking the world with sacred wonder,
priming the souls with curing thunder,
every sonnet is call against slumber,
every line, a revolt against plunder.

From the alleys of grief
to the towers of pride,
I am wounded, I walk with
the wounded by my side.

Not born to erase faith,
but to rewrite it tolerant;
suffering is the doorway,
to the becoming of a saint.

A pair of helping hands is holier
than a million praying lips;
I got no need for scripture,
for I carry a heart that beats.

I have no law, but life -
I have no edict, but empathy.
I have no creed, but conscience -
I am the vow of mad inclusivity.

Roads ignited with the voice of oneness,
cannot be extinguished by clouds of hate.
When the final regime has fallen to pieces,
the drop of dew will still be incandescent.”
Abhijit Naskar, Hazrat-e Humanity: The Uncultured Polyglot

“March of Human (Trisonnet 2556-2558)

When the world feels cold and hollow,
and the clouds won't let you breathe,
awake, arise, and walk the marrow,
you are fire fated to be free.

Every heartbeat, an anthem of love,
every syllable breaks a chain -
you're the thunder you ought to follow,
rise untamed, and history's rearranged.

Every silence holds a scripture,
every wound is a sacred drum -
every time you defy despair,
you teach midnight how to hum.

When the Human speaks, mountains wake,
tired hearts of earth unbreak -
turn the world from ash to flame,
help the broken speak their name.

When the Pilgrim speaks, borders fall,
the migrant soul becomes the all -
in the quake of your cosmic call,
empires misplace their mighty gall.

Write like time's a fragile toy,
like galaxies sit in your palm -
roar with justice, rain with joy,
awaken chaos into calm!

From deserts to the deltas,
from river to the sky,
be the ink of revolution,
that refuses to comply.

Grab history by the collar,
take hate and make it dust -
when you near, tyrants stutter;
lift the planet from the jungle gutter.

When the Heart speaks, the Earth rewrites,
buried stories are restored with rights -
paint the future with your bare hands,
teach the fire how to stand.

When the Human walks, the soil revives,
forgotten streets all come to life -
with every step, with every beat,
Awake, Arise, and Breathe Complete!”
Abhijit Naskar, Hazrat-e Humanity: The Uncultured Polyglot
