Himalayan Sonneteer: 100 Sonnets of Unsubmission Quotes

“She is Crown (The Sonnet) Love her for all she is, Not just when she can please. She is the crown of your life, Not the fly of your jeans. Love her for all she is, Even when she hates herself. If you can't be the rock to her, It is you who needs help. Love her for all she is, Be the cushion to her failure. While all celebrate her triumph, You celebrate her even in disaster. Death can't do you part if you're never two. Love is what turns two minds into one truth.”

“Can’t Handle Freedom (The Sonnet) Whole human is the first human, All else are but wannabe. Designation human says it all, Yet why do you chase terminology! Even when you broke free from religion, You could not handle that utter freedom! Like a rightful new descendant of divisionists, You chained the word "human" with an "ism". It is like you can't handle being free, You have to stay enslaved by one ism or another. They used to keep the world apart with religions, Today the same is done by new-age dividers. Human, human, human - that is all we ever are. Not humanist, not socialist, just carers of each other.”

“There is no sunrise without sacrifice, There is no unity without inclusion. There is no love without conviction, There is no justice without unsubmission. No sewage is ever sanctified without sewage-workers, No society is ever civilized without reformers. No mutation ever occurs without an anomaly, No world is brought to life without love-laborers.”

“Beyond the Nature of Truth (The Sonnet) Do you realize how serious the situation is, Are you aware of the lives ruined by cruelty? Because if you stay aloof in your cloud castle, All talk of humanity is but a tale of fantasy. Can you tell the real from the unreal, Can you tell facts from fantasy? I am not talkin' in terms of neuroscience, I am askin' you as a human, of human responsibility. We can argue about the nature of truth all we want, But that won't alleviate the suffering of society. So the question is, do you know the worth of life, How far will you go to preserve another's serenity! Does human welfare overpower your insecurity? Or is the self still separate from society?”

“Himalayan Sonneteer Sonnet 3 What is the role of an electrical fuse? Amateurs will say, conducting electricity. But the actual task of a fuse is, To blow itself when the load is too heavy. Thus the fuse protects the appliance, Against any electrical irregularity. Likewise, we gotta blow our fuse, Whenever inhumanity hangs heavy. If we stay silent in indifference, What's the point of all this electricity! Nerves that carry not vigor but ice water, Ain't no human nerves but sewers of society. Human nerves are the life-circuit of society. If they carry ice water, it is a catastrophe.”

“Unbound (The Sonnet) Unbound by tradition, Unbound by biases, Unbound by belief, Unbound by loyalties, Unbound by logicality, Unbound by assumption, Unbound by selfishness, Unbound by argumentation, Unbound by intellect, Unbound by ignorance, Unbound by arrogance, Unbound by indifference. This is how we rise human, This is how we find communion.”
