“Selam-e-Sapiens (Shattered Seer Sonnet) Sometimes I'm battered vagabond, Sometimes I'm shattered seer. No claim to name, fame or reign, Lovedrunk I write borracha poesía. Sometimes I'm mest-i-mevlana, Sometimes I'm my own Shams. Sometimes I'm dastan-e-dervish, Sometimes I'm selam-e-sapiens. I am no brahmin, I am the Godfather of brahmins; I am Parabrahma, the Brahmins worship. I am Adi, I am Anth, I am Ananth Adishakti. Leave your creed, crown and constitution, when you enter my door. I am but a human if you are human, if you're sectarian, I'm messiah galore.”

“I am Multiculturalism (The Sonnet) I don't write on multiculturalism, I am multiculturalism. The only nationalism I care about, is tribalism ending multinationalism. I can't do it no more - I can't! One little language is enough no more! I gotta be the Himalayas in every language, I gotta be the Himalayas in every culture. Either you'll know me as a national hero of every nation, or you won't know me at all. So long as a single human calls me foreigner, I'll conclude, I've achieved nothing at all.”

“I don't need to write in all these languages of the world - those who care, will find a way. I write in more than one language because I want to. I want to leave at least something extremely personal for every culture in the world - that is, for as many cultures as I humanly can.”

“The Good Conqueror (Sonnet) Born in the land of multiculturalism, I grew up speaking three languages, mother tongue, national tongue and English. Then in my late teens I acquired my fourth tongue Telugu on a whim, and later along the years, I acquired my fifth, Turkish, which became my dearest, and my sixth, yet to be perfected, Spanish. That's the only conquest I care about, for language is the highway to culture. Not real estate, gadgets or cash, give me languages, give me cultures. English is my work language, Turkish is my love language. Science is my brain language, Integration, my heart language.”

“Sonnet Shahada, 2345 I switch cultures like clothes, I switch sciences like pens. I switch scriptures like tides, I switch languages like seasons. Service of humanity is supreme shahada, to defend the persecuted is cosmic khalsa, to treat neighbor as god is real dharma, quiet kindness is the real karma. Ana al-haqq, ana al-hub - aham bindu, aham brahmanda. I shed dogma like dead skin, el cosmos es mi casa.”
