Himalayan Sonneteer: 100 Sonnets of Unsubmission Quotes

“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.”
