“Zoroastrianism? Oh, there’s never been but a few hundred thousand of them at any one time, mostly located in Ira n and India, butthat’s it. The one true faith. If you’re not a Zoroastrian, I’m afraid you are bound for Hell.”
The man looked stunned and shocked. “It’s not fair.”
The demon gave a mirthful laugh. “Well, it was fair when you were sending all the Chinese to Hell who had never heard of Jesus. Wasn’t it? And what a cruel and vicious Hell it was. And your Hell was not our short little correct-you-a-little Hell. This was eternal damnation. At least in the true Zoroastrianism system you eventually get out of Hell. Do you have any idea how long eternity is? My heavens, what an imagination you humans have. What kind of God would leave you burning forever? Most of you wouldn’t do that to a neighbor’s dog, even if it barked incessantly at two a.m. every morning. After about ten minutes watching a dog suffer in the kind of Hell you imagined God was going send his wicked children to, you would be pleading for the damned beast’s mercy. It’s crazy. Create a few beings; those that don’t obey you roast forever? Give me a break.”

“I Write to Destroy You (The Sonnet)
I don’t write to pamper your ego,
I don't write to give you comfort.
I don't write to teach you self-love,
I write to destroy all selfish thought.
I don't write to inspire your pride,
I don't write to cater to your insecurity.
I don't write to entertain shallowness,
I only write to abolish self-centricity.
I don't write to tickle the instaslaves,
I don't write to peddle false perfection.
I don't write to lick the privileged boots,
I write to make soldiers of self-annihilation.
My science and my art were born on the street.
That's where I learnt, all suffering is born of greed.”

“New Melody (The Sonnet)
What is this new melody,
That I hear on my guitar!
What is this new tune,
That makes squabbles disappear!
What is this new serenade,
Calling upon a headstrong wind!
Whose are the footsteps I hear,
With such vigor yet gentle and kind!
Amidst the cacophony of cockiness,
What is this heartbeat of sacrifice!
Amidst the drumbeats of individualism,
What is this new desire to universalize!
What is this new voice of sanity I hear!
It is you and me, the branded blasphemer.”

“I Want The Golden World (The Sonnet)
No matter what you say,
I want the golden world.
To hell with the sayers of nay,
I keep working without reward.
You may have your comfort,
Enjoy all your luxuries futile.
For me there's no other joy,
Like making someone smile.
All you do is take and take,
Yet I have nothing against thee.
Just remember that one day,
You shall die of obesity.
Vegetables can mock all they want.
I shall die building the golden world.”
