Sonnets From The Mountaintop Quotes

“Sonnet 2500 You're right, I am not a poet, I have not written hundreds of poems; you're right, I am not a writer, I have not written a couple of books. I'm sorry, I am not a poet, I have not written hundreds of sonnets, I have written thousands - I have not written a handful of books, I have erected a library. You do not have the scales in your two-dimensional intellect to measure the multidimensional Ecosystem of Expansion - larger than tribe, larger than time, I am Detonation of The First Multicultural Civilization.”

“Generation Understanding (Sonnet 2480) No matter what the apes want you to believe, it's not weakness to abandon suspicion, it's not weakness to discard judgment, it's not weakness to practice empathy, it's not weakness to be considerate - it's not misdemeanor to denounce primitive practices that our ancestors thought sensible, it's a sign of wisdom, not stupidity, to admit ignorance, rather than succumb to supernatural. My favorite answer of all is, 'I don't know' - in the absence of rigorous investigation that's the answer I fall back on the most; then there are times when logic is immaterial, there I avoid all mention of knowledge, and take the humane course, despite reason or ritual.”

“America is The Warning (Sonnet) Finally America has fallen, it's a great day for the human race, now that the american dream is infected, it's a golden occasion for earth upliftment. Uncle Sam has contracted something nasty, nothing surprising, it's long time coming; the time has never been more immaculate, for actual human cultures and civilizations to dream beyond the monkeys of silicon valley. It's a golden age of decolonization, time to rescue your mind from the parasites; it's time for great rejoicing, now that the land of plague has lost its marbles - fall of America is a blessing for humankind. West never had culture to begin with, neither Washington nor Rome or Buck House - when parasites bury themselves in castles, light of the human engulf the world around.”

“Leaves of Ash (Divine Violence, Sonnet) You know why the West makes such a song and dance about nonviolence, because when your entire empire is built on systemic extermination of living cultures and communities, it really helps if you simultaneously propagate a favorable ideal of nonresistance to evil, this way you can criminalize the very thought of revolution, not only legally, but also morally. Nonviolence has never been about human rights, nonviolence is western propaganda, commodified to maintain moral superiority, if the tortured communities ever dare to resist. Revolution is a fundamental pillar of justice, don't succumb to hypocritical hogwash - colonizers should be seen, and not heard, their philosophy, their theology, all come last. I'm not talking about exceptional ideas, good ideas should be studied as individual ideas, not as western ideas, and western philosophies must never be prioritized as default literature.”

“Yalla Ciao (Divine Melody, S.2450) What have you done oh, tonto hermano, mountain of lies after lies after lies, lies, lies! What have you done oh, gringo hermano, ripped off el mundo from its core. You don't need AI, you don't need rockets, oh brother ciao, yalla ciao, yalla ciao, ciao, ciao! Bedlam is empty, loonies rule government, now just go call your medico!”

“Colonizers are the second class citizens, every land first belongs to the indigenous. Landback is the mother of all movements, it contains the plight of all First Humans. Women are indigenous to their own body, Palestinians are indigenous to palestine; uncultured crowns and criminal uncles have no jurisdiction over our Earthright.”

“The I-less Continuum (Sonnet 2456) When a 3 pound brain drops on a bigot in its complete vastness, bigotry don't just blush, it's blasted to ashes. When a 10 ounce heart drops on a racist in its complete wholeness, the very idea of race is blown out of existence. Neurons are the prophets of reality, consciousness is the scripture. I don't see the turn of the universe, I cause the universe to turn. Beyond culture, religion and nation, there's my homeland called human - beyond faith, intellect, reason and ritual, existence blooms in I-less continuum.”
