“What I learnt from haters (The Sonnet) In the recent years I've come to realize, when you stand firm on rights and equality, seeing you as threat, they brand you dictator. When you have no firm conviction whatsoever, you ain't someone worth noting, just a number. I'm flattered when they make serious time out to call me stupid, meaningless and narcissist. If intolerance of prejudice makes me a dictator, Hundred Hitlers fall pale to my God complex. I don't consider creatures like Winnie human, who have no regard for rights over tradition. If this makes you think, I'm megalomaniacal, it's alright, you are just lost children. I once said, no one is inferior to no one, except those who think of others as such. If this simple truth makes me the enemy, ecology 101: sun always repels the badgers.”

“Naskar Syndrome (The Sonnet) If you value mission over money, you got the Naskar syndrome. If you value mind over machine, you got the Naskar syndrome. Value listening over scrolling, and you got the Naskar syndrome. If you value behavior over belief, you got the Naskar syndrome. If you value rights over ritual, you got the Naskar syndrome. If you value life over doctrine, you got the Naskar syndrome. Rise, revolt and roar for reform, then you are my soldier of dawn. Awake, aspire, and ascend in light, then you are my fulfilled vision.”
