Humanist Poem Quotes

“Simple, Sonnet Serenity is born of simplicity, Insecurity is born of clutter. Patience empowers perseverance, Selfishness brings down disaster. But what's a life without difficulty, Difficulty delivers durability. Don't be ashamed of darkness in life, It's in darkness we shine most brightly. There's nothing shameful about fear, It's a problem when the reason is baseless. Trouble of privilege is trouble of lies, Reject all privilege and rush to the helpless. It is human nature to shed tears when in agony, Taking pain to wipe another's tears is humanity.”

“Sapiens Impossible (The Sonnet) If my existence isn't impossible, I do not wanna exist. If my legacy isn't impossible, I do not want to live. If my breath doesn't breathe life, I don't wanna take another breath. If my veins don't invigorate another, I have no need for such useless veins. If my heart isn't proof of love impossible, May this be the last time my heart beats. If this being isn't the bridge of oneness, May the bugs have a feast on some good eats. I don't wanna live as a weakling of the jungle. If I must live I'll live as sapiens impossible.”

“Jai Ho (Sonnet 1165) Jai Ho to all the beings, Who ain't hypnotized with hate! Jai Ho to all the beings, Who ain't living in cavemen days! Jai Ho to the luchadors, Who struggle por la igualdad! Jai Ho to the reformers, Who value rights over ritual! Space may be the final frontier, But heart is the first frontier. Unless we first conquer the heart, We'll turn the cosmos into dumpyard. So I salute, to all explorers of heart! Jai Ho to the janitors of our cosmic courtyard!”

“God is all in the mind, What's wrong with that! Art is also all in the mind, So, is art nothing but dirt! Dividers will always divide, Haters will always hate. Apes will find one excuse or another, To justify their authoritarian trait.”

“Remove the ism, you got race. Remove the race, you got the human. Remove the man, you got who? Remove the who, and you got no clue. Now we can start, without any predominance. Let us discover life, in its full magnificence.”

“Sonnet 1010 Life is but life's religion, Life is but life's philosophy. Books may be a part of life's growth, But no book is handbook to sensibility. Take no book as life's handbook, Believe no being as life's authority. Neither me, nor any other figure, Can be north star to your senility. You are but an electric eel, You don't need second hand electricity. Generate your own electric current, And light up your part of humanity. It is time to end all lies of authoritarianism, And take the leap of living faith across divisionism.”

“Never Planned (The Sonnet) I never planned to be a poet, I never planned to be a writer. I never planned to be a scientist, I never planned to be a philosopher. I never had any plans whatsoever, As to what I was going to be. As a vagabond I only had one inkling, That is to equalize the society. Now that I am a scientist, Logic comes to me like clockwork. Now that I am a writer and poet, Words and rhymes come like lovewalk. The path appears itself as you start to walk. Means flow like heartbeat in all purposeful work.”

“Reason and Heart (The Sonnet) The death of reason is the death of progress, But the death of heart is the death of existence. Division between reason and heart must be destroyed, For it has kept us from achieving our luminescence. Heart alone is the master, intellect is the servant, Let it be so, and great things will follow. Place your head at the feet of your heart, And the entire world will start to glow. Let heart be the art you practice, Let art be the heart you practice. Let love be the science you practice, Let science be the love you practice. One who has reason has something, One who has heart has everything.”

“Neighborhood Humanitarian (The Sonnet) They ask me, why do I never run out of ideas! It is because I never dwell in one culture. Sometimes I'm North American, sometimes Latino, Sometimes I'm South Indian, sometimes I am Turk. When I run low on charge, I listen to Español, When my sight gets foggy, I watch Cary Grant. Whenever I feel homesick, I listen to some Telugu, Whenever my heart bleeds, I run straight to Turkey. It is sort of a perpetual motion engine, I empower the cultures, the cultures empower me. If I am the world's not-so-secret hometown human, The world is my secret to my infinite electricity. How, do you think, I became the neighborhood humanitarian to every single person on earth! It's because I never glorified one culture over another.”

“The universal reason is love, The universal faith is love. All else is but a faint echo, Driving us away from love. Taking the echo for the source, the living heart turns bitter stone. The sky above knows no east and west, only the bugs beneath insist on separation.”

“Nothing is Everything (The Sonnet) Your accent doesn't matter, Your language doesn't matter. Your scripture doesn't matter, Your nationality doesn't matter. Beyond the prisons of all divisions, There is a valley of total nothingness. In that nothingness you shall find light, In nothingness lies absolute wholeness. So long as you are exclusively something, You can never be everywhere and everything. Once you are everywhere and everything, You have no need for the backward things. For once in our life, let's be whole in nothing. Once we taste nothingness, there is no turning.”

“Dropout Scientist (The Sonnet) I am a scientist who doesn't have a degree, I am a poet who has no control over words. I am a philosopher who has no intellect whatsoever, I am a monk with no idea, what it means to be religious. If I am being honest, I have no clue what I am, And I know quite well that you do not know either. But believe you me my friend, one day in sheer awe, Your descendants will come up with the rightful answer. In my 30 years of life, I've traveled quite a distance, Which will take the world at least a millennium to cover. That's why archaic designations fall short to define life, No designation is qualified to define a being beyond border. My faith is humanity, my reason is humanity, my love is humanity. I am but a glimpse of the future, without coldness and rigidity.”

“Time to Bury All Divide (The Sonnet) It's time we bury the nationality nonsense, Person is known by their behavior not nation. It's time we bury the holy book nonsense, Person becomes holy by compassion not religion. It's time we bury the representation nonsense, Social reform starts with civic duty not delegation. It's time we bury the intellectualism nonsense, Society is civilized by heart not cocky argumentation. It's time we abolish the royalty nonsense, Humans are known by behavior, animals by bloodline. It's time we dissolve all moronity of hierarchy, True advancement lies in the abolition of divide. Even the mighty sun doesn't differentiate between first world and third world humanity. It is only the lowly beings who can't help but practice some good old exclusivity.”

“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.”

“Sapient or Savage (The Sonnet) To be or not to be, That is not the question. To be human or stay animal, That is the question. Human and animal, What is the difference! To be animal is to be selfish, To be human is to go beyond the self. There's more to life than us and them, There's more to life than loss and gain. There's more to life than money and fame, There's more to life than dogmatic lanes. To be or not to be, that is not the question. Be sapient or stay savage, it's your decision.”

“More Important Than Truth (The Sonnet) In the beginning even I was, Bedazzled by the concept of truth. It took me some time to, Step across the lure of truth. That is when I realized that, Every brain creates its own truth. So we'd never achieve harmony, With the heartless pursuit of truth. Understanding the definition of truth, May differ from person to person. But the virtues of basic goodness, Need no divisive interpretation. Always place love first, truth second. Humanity first, intelligence second!”

“Peygamber Undercover (Sonnet of Accountability) Everywhere I look, there's apocalypse! Everywhere I look, there's inhumanity! We have slept like a log long enough! It's time for the human to embody humanity! Still if you ask out of fear and insecurity, What can you one person do to bring change! Mark my words, if you are really determined, You could part the ocean with sheer intent. You have the power to turn this ailing world, Into a world of laughter and loveliness. The question is, are you a responsible human, Or just another crummy vessel of recklessness? Whatever the trouble may be, you are the answer. In this difficult time, you are peygamber undercover.”

“I have no control over my words, including the titles. Every time a title appears in my mind it sends a chill down my spine. The entire body shakes up in momentary tremor followed by the rush of an immense tranquility. And that's it! Right or not, that is the title. The same happens whenever I come up with a radical statement. Just like Ramanujan used to have visions of numbers, I have visions of words, that too, in the most socially relevant manner possible.”

“Sonnet of Norms It is not patriarchal to hold the door for a lady, It is not cowardly to leave your seat to the elderly. But it is barbaric to harass a breastfeeding mother, And prehistoric to force a woman carry a pregnancy. There are norms that nourish the societal fabric, Then there are norms out of touch with age and times. Beyond both freedom and obedience as a whole being, You ought to realize where and how to draw the lines. The problem is that most do not know when to rebel, They rebel out of boredom to seek adventure not justice. They commit reckless vandalism in the name of activism, And feel proud while committing the most heinous deeds. Norms require careful scrutiny, not headless rebellion. Hence, quite often rebels become the new face of oppression.”

“Esperanza Impossible Sonnet 1 Earth is but a bedlam, All the beings are loonies. We are so engrossed in prejudice, Integration feels like blasphemy. We still cannot live side by side, We want it all for ourselves. We won't even move a single inch, When it comes to our opinion and ways. Selfishness, thy name is Sapiens, Upon its norm we philosophize kindness. We invented fancy terms like altruism, Lest we're infected with common humanness. Humanity is too alive to be bound by ism. Dead things can be dogmatized, not expansion.”
