“Peace Sonnet Peace doesn't grow on trees, Nor is it produced in factories. It has been a concept of books, Must it stay that way for centuries! Where argumentation is afoot, The mission becomes a phantom. Where the mind thrives on tradition, Peace is an inconvenience to the norm. Peace is but a myth most foul, An annoying goal that demands a lot. We just prefer our cozy cocoons, Giving up any of it is just plain absurd. But there is a cure to the war disease. Loosen your knots and there'll be peace.”

“Sonnet of Culture Our culture their culture, Enough of this primitive nonsense. It may have suited our ancestors, But it suits not beings of conscience. Of all nations on the face of earth, My nation is the greatest. This is no behavior of the civilized, It's but a sign of the stupidest. The savage jungle or modern society, What would you like to be a part of? Your choice means absolutely nothing, Till you act on the accountability thereof. Boasting ancestry declares a dead character. Wake up from death to write a new chapter.”

“Self and Society (The Sonnet) I and you are not two but one, The space in-between is an illusion. The air you breathe is also in me, Then why hang on to separation! Where there is dark ignorance, There festers delusion most foul. Once you give in to such atrocity, Society breaks out in painful howl. Self and society are one whole being, That's how we make a humane world. But if this is none of your concern, You are but a bug with conscience curled. Fabric of society is everyone's business. It's time we breathe life into humaneness.”

“Is it so small a thing To have enjoy'd the sun, To have liv'd light in the spring, To have lov'd, to have thought, to have done; To have advanc'd true friends, and beat down baffling foes; That we must feign a bliss Of doubtful future date, And while we dream on this Lose our present state, And relegate to worlds yet distant our repose? Empedocles on Etna: Act I, Scene II”
