“World is My Family (The Sonnet)
Family is the world to everybody,
But to me the world is my family.
In the life of a true human,
Raising a wall is but blasphemy.
If the world is Juliet, I'm her Romeo,
If the world is Romeo, I'm his Juliet.
Amidst the storms of hate and hurt,
I am but an anchor of love and lenience.
I'll hide the world in my heart if necessary,
To provide sanctuary is the heart's purpose.
The struggle of this human will continue,
Till all drives of hate are memories of the past.
So I say again, my world is my responsibility.
Beware my dear bigots, I'm injurious to inhumanity!”

“To See Color (The Sonnet)
The problem is not that you see color,
It is that you assume character from color.
The problem is not that you see gender,
It is that you assume capacity from gender.
The problem is not that you see religion,
It is that you assume tendency from religion.
The problem is not that you see profession,
It is that you assume worth from profession.
The problem is not that you see sexuality,
It is that you assume nature from sexuality.
The problem is not that you see nationality,
It is that you assume honor from nationality.
The main problem is not that you make assumptions.
It is that you assume yourself beyond examination.”

“Poet of A Planet (The Sonnet)
I am not the poet of a nation,
I am the poet of a planet.
I don't do just one culture,
Assimilation is the prime tenet.
Hence my work repels nationalists,
Like the sun repels the nightcrawlers,
While it attracts expanding beings,
Like the amazon attracts explorers.
If you wanna hear how great your culture is,
Go read some fundamentalist fiction.
I don't write for prehistoric barbarians,
To put it bluntly, I write for modern humans.
I repeat, I'm not the poet of a single nation.
I am but the living proof of amalgamation.”

“No Slave to Culture (The Sonnet)
What do you take me for - a street dog!
Slave to one religion, one nation, one culture!
Dinosaur here - wherever I lay my eyes,
Becomes my nation, my religion, my culture!
To add nationality to my name is to vilify my name,
Sectarianism and nonsectarianism don't go together.
To add exclusive ethnicity to my work is a violation,
Barbarism can't define the spirit of a human sonneteer.
Days of single nationality, single religion are gone,
It's the age of universal nationality and religion.
In this civilized age, human nationality is humanity,
Human religion and culture are love and compassion.
Exclusive ethnicity is a sign of a backward society.
Expand across the one imposed, and there'll be harmony.”

“Mental Piece (The Sonnet)
In the west you call me humanitarian scientist,
Somewhere in the middle you call me pragmatist.
In the middle-east you call me sufi or dervish,
In the east you call me advaitin or nondualist.
No matter how you see me, you all are my own,
Each of you is family, each of you is my home.
Then there are those who ardently call me fraud,
Which also is a sign of love, but yet unknown.
I am not a person, prison or path, for I am vicdan,
I'm saadet, my friend, I am the spirit of unification.
Call the sun as you like, it still brightens the world,
In the domain of realization, to label is desecration.
All labels are equally right yet equally incomplete.
In a world full of showpiece I am but a mental piece.”

“Hiring a few Black or Asian employees will solve your issues of 'diversity'. However, it certainly will not address racism or be enough to demonstrate anti-racist practice. In reality, it will achieve nothing more than providing a visual tick box.”
“Humans and animals all are welcome in my house, but not fundamentalists and nationalists.”
