“Give Me A Keyboard,
I'll Give You Revolution
(The Sonnet)
I just want to write -
that's all I ever want -
to write, write and write!
The day the words stop coming,
will be my last corporeal night.
Either I shall die by an assassin's bullet,
or I shall die on my keyboard,
but I refuse to die of old-age and disease.
Death scares those who are scared of life,
I have already lived my life in service.
I live on keyboard, I'll die on keyboard,
Keyboard is my instrument of illumination.
Nothing short could satisfy my palate -
Give me a keyboard, I'll give you revolution.
With my keyboard I've defended the meek,
With my keyboard I've castrated the pricks.
With my keyboard I've brought down dictators,
With my keyboard I've schooled bigoted pigs.
With my keyboard I've raised Gods by hundreds,
With my keyboard I've delivered world-builders.
With my keyboard I've produced hatebusters,
With my keyboard I've raised bulldozers.
Death is but a myth - body dies, not bulldozer;
Body is merely a vessel for the mission.
If you want your ideas to live forever,
You gotta sacrifice your life for a vision.
I never lived as body, but only as a dream -
My life is testament to the dream of united earth.
I don't have a message, for I am the message -
Sacrifice is beacon, that illuminates the universe.”

“Give me a kiss to build a dream on
And my imagination will thrive upon that kiss
Sweetheart, I ask no more than this
A kiss to build a dream on.”
“Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score:
Then to that twenty, add a hundred more.”
Source: Selected poems
“Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score; Then to that twenty, add a hundred more: A thousand to that hundred: so kiss on, To make that thousand up a million. Treble that million, and when that is done, Let's kiss afresh, as when we first begun.”
