“Human Bulldozer (The Sonnet) I am no Gandhi, that I'd sit quietly and spin a wheel, While people suffer in the clutches of imperialism. I am no Guevara either, that I would shoot anyone, Who looks suspicious, in my revolution for freedom. Gandhi and Guevara are two extremes of human struggle, One glorifies submission, another heralds new oppression. Neither is fit for an infant world aiming to be civilized, For one lacks backbone, the other weaponizes assumption. We may take a little from Gandhi, a little from Guevara, Without rigidity we may administer them accordingly. I am an accountable human living in a world run by biases, So most times I'll keep quiet and act as a harmless dummy. But whenever inhumanity goes overboard wreaking havoc, The human bulldozer will rise to cleanse every epoch.”

“Sonnet of Human Duty To deliver humanity from inhumanity, Is the duty of every human. To deliver the innocent from injustice, Is the duty of every human. The indifferent may call it god complex, Apathetic pessimists may call it idealism. I call it the meaning of life and sanity, The opposite is just a sign of doofusism. Differences won't destroy the world, Indifference is far more ominous. The problem is not the evil doers, But the silent spectators. Mark me well, the day I stay silent is the day, Lady liberty throws her torch away.”

“The World Sonnet The world will never be a place without troubles, But that is not the point, the point is something else. The point is that most of the troubles we do have, Are caused by our own archaic stupidity 'n shallowness. Shallow and indifferent, that's the norm of the world. With such norm how can we expect there to be equality! Civilization comes from the ground, not the government. The ones walking the ground are the cause of humanity. Rhythm of the world comes from the rhythm of your heart, Place your hand on your heart and listen across biases. If there is music in you there'll be music in the world, But if there's just noise within, all around there’ll be travesty. WORLD means We On Road of Love and Determination. The aim is to conquer our last ounce of discrimination.”

“Book of Destiny (The Sonnet) The book of destiny is the being, Who doesn't believe in destiny. The epitome of victory is the one, Who doesn't care for victory. Victory and destiny all are born, Of the sweat and blood of the determined. Annihilate the self for a purpose, And you'll be the icon of universal uplift. You don't fall by falling at someone's feet, You fall by climbing on top of others' head. You don't rise by being superior to others, But by losing sense of high 'n low divisiveness. Mark me well, human is neither person nor species. Designation Human is the highest of all responsibilities.”

“Evolution & World Building (The Sonnet) One cell became two, For being alone is no life. Then those two became four, To ease each other's strife. 3 billion years later there are, Seven billion of us and trillions others. Now how come we wanna turn back time, How come we hoard all after selfish desires! Joy of sharing outshines all other joy Caring is the very foundation of life divine. Divinity means neither magic not mysticism, It’s just a common sense that makes hearts align. The powers of world-building are all encoded in you. Bring those codes to life and write the world anew.”

“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.”

“In Your Trust (The Sonnet) My soldiers don't smoke and drink, Though they may try them for experience. They don't look at another sexually, Without their wholehearted consent. I made myself the human, I want to see in the world. Touch my work only after, You've renounced being self-absorbed. I didn't annihilate my entire life, So that you may turn me into another cult. Never you use me to boost your ego, Or as an excuse for intellectual outburst. Do not be Naskar, be the Naskar 2.0. I leave my homeworld in trust of yours.”

“Vicdansaadet, The Sonnet I have many names, Sometimes I am Hometown Human, Sometimes I am Mucize Insan, Sometimes I am Ingan Impossible, Sometimes I am Mukemmel Musalman, Sometimes I am Dervish Advaitam, Sometimes I am Bulldozer on Duty, Sometimes I am Corazon Calamidad, Sometimes I am High Voltage Habib, Sometimes I am Himalayan Sonneteer, Sometimes I am The Gentalist, Sometimes I am Divane Dynamite, Sometimes I am Rowdy Scientist. These all look and sound so different, because you are distant in culture. Move past the circus of manmade caves, within every heart you'll find a Naskar. Call it Naskar, Shams or Adi Shankara, it is all but one spirit of oneness. Wherever the fire of integration takes hold, there emerges Vicdansaadet.”

“Sonnet 1144 Istanbul to Alpha Centauri, Cosmos courses in my corpuscles. Religion, nation, stuff it all, Benevolence makes the world livable. Din, dünya, milliyet falan, hiç umurumda değil. Sen mutlu ol - bana yeter. Scripture, constitution, god, government, Nothing matters to me, except behavior. The greatest iftar is to break the fast of apathy, with the feast of affection. Sin humano no hay dios, Where there is no kindness there is no divine intervention. Sapiens intervention is divine intervention, There is nothing higher or more mighty. When we are obliterated in lifting the fallen, That's the living manifestation of the almighty.”

“Sonnet 1142 Naskar the scientist says, Science that lifts no human condition, is not science but superstition. Naskar the monk says, Inclusion is illumination, discrimination is delusion. Naskar the philosopher says, Better lose truth, than lose humanity - Better lose truth, than lose love. Naskar the sufi says, Sense yourself till you sense nothing but love. Naskar the humanist says, I don't care about your belief or disbelief, all I care about is your behavior with others. Naskar the humanitarian says, each human must earn their admission into the human race with humane actions. The spirit of love speaks of love, no matter the faith and field. Hate is but a mark of narrowness - When you expand heart and soul, whole world becomes kin and kith.”

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 15 I am the craftsman, I am the craft. I am the artist, I am the art. I am the infinity, I am absolution. I am impossibility, I am the solution. I am the just, As well as justice. I am equality, As well as its means. There's always a way, so long as I exist, And I exist wherever there's a Universalist.”

“Helper is Herald (The Sonnet) Every peacemaker is muslim, Every lover is christian. Every helper is buddhist, Every lifter is human. Every lovenut is sufi, Every braveheart is latin. Every collectivist is jew, Every secularist is advaitin. All labels are futile, If there's no substance underneath. Focus on substance as a whole being, Leave the labeling to the elite. The helper is the herald, the lifter is the light. In a world with double vision, selflessness is the only sight.”

“Find The Human (The Sonnet) Find the human in you, and, You'll find the human in everybody. The way things are inside, So they are externally. World is reflection of the self, Outside is reflection of inside. Blind heart maketh the world blind, Kind heart maketh the world kind. We cover our eyes with our hands, And weep as children for it is too dark. We let biases take over our behavior, Then we shout why the world is so unjust. Without heart all fancy exterior is delusion, Only truth in the world is the one internal.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 79 When we end up together, That's not an end, but the beginning. It's division that ends all journey, End division, ‘n life will have true beginning. Century after century went on with division, Yet unity is forever, division is nonexistence. To breathe, eat, mate and sleep, ain't existence, To help, heal, lift and light, that's existence. We've got intellect, we've got sentiment, All are useless if they don't help erase division. Human is another name for undivision, Not another synonym for discrimination. To have 'n to hold, mustn't be a vow between just two. Make it one among all, and soon unity will be true.”

“Be The Love Commandment (A Sonnet) Instead of worrying about a fictitious judgment day, Make your actual today a real nonjudgment day. Instead of hoping for a fictitious heaven after death, Make this world that you have an abode without hate. Plenty of heart force we have wasted on fiction, Plenty of attention we have placed on insecurity. Now it's time to redirect our time and priorities, It is time to be the valiant vanguards of reality. I ain’t talkin’ about being chained to the reality, Nor about keeping things the way they are for so long. All I'm asking is, we pay attention to the now and here, Instead of obsessing over tales from days long gone. So, stand up to the tyrants as apocalypse incarnate. Reach out to the needy as a living love commandment.”

“What’s It All About (The Sonnet) What is this world all about! What is this society all about! What is this life all about! What is our existence all about! What are the roads all about! What are the skyscrapers all about! What are the bridges all about! What are our feet all about! What is science all about! What is faith all about! What is technology all about! What is politics all about! 'Tis all about people and their welfare. All notions to the contrary cause only despair.”

“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.”

“Lives to Serve Before I Sleep Lives to serve before I sleep, Cause service is my salvation; Wounds to heal before I sleep, Cause time is wailing for absolution; Bridges to build before I sleep, Cause too many walls are raised already; Peoples to unite before I sleep, Cause civilization is trembling and walking unsteady. Shackles to shatter before I sleep, Cause corruption festers in the stagnant norm; Labels to erase before I sleep, Cause they've only confused our global dorm; Sects to humanize before I sleep, Cause segregation has weakened the human bond; Blades to burn before I sleep, Cause they've turned the world into a bloody pond. Tears to wipe before I sleep, Cause the society is lost in fun; Homes to heal before I sleep, Cause ego has wrecked the nests a ton; Biases to alleviate before I sleep, Cause bigotry has outweighed compassion; Purity to pour before I sleep, Cause all are chasing petty gratification. Spirits to lift before I sleep, Cause the minds are running dry; Gods to build before I sleep, Cause orthodoxy makes humanity cry; Wars to end before I sleep, Cause no life is expendable and puny; Humans to raise before I sleep, Cause where humans act human there reigns harmony.”

“Amantes Assemble Sonnet 80 Why do we take breath, Is it to stay alive! Why do we eat bread, Is it to stay alive! Why do we drink water, Is it to stay alive! Why do we take naps, Is it to stay alive! Why do we look to mate, Is it to stay alive! Why do we have me time, Is it to stay alive! These just keep the body alive, nothing else. The mind is alive when it lives beyond the self.”

“Blasphemy (The Sonnet) Insan dertte olduğunda, Ne ben, ne sen - hep aynı. Birbirimize destek olamıyorsa, Ne insan, ne hayvan - hep aynı. İnsan merhameti unuttuğunda, Ne cennet, ne cehennem - hep aynı. İnsan insanın acılarına ilaç olamıyorsa, Ne insan, ne canavar - hep aynı. When another being is in pain, Only blasphemy is indifference. If we can't be cure to each other, It's not life, but derangement. Dünyanın gözyaşlarını silmek için gençliğimi bile feda ettim. Çünkü insanların gülüşünde ben kendimi kaybettim.”

“Kindness No Obligation (The Sonnet) Those who feel kindness is an obligation, Don't really feel but crawl as walking dead. Those who think society ain't their responsibility, Don’t think, they're just specimens of mental midget. Giants are those who lay themselves down, For the welfare of every single soul around. Intellect is a tool for, not a subject of, greatness and glory, The root of all greatness is a gentle heart unbound. Kindness is more than a trait, just like accountability, These things make a human out of an animal. Selfishness is more than a flaw, just like egotism, These things keep an animal from becoming human. Little selfishness is ok so long as your humanity is in charge. We've been animal long enough, now let's be giants on guard.”

“Look At The Stars (The Sonnet) Look up my friend, look at the stars, You know some of them exploded long ago. Yet their light keeps shining even when they're gone, For none of their rays is tainted by ego. Not a kernel of kindness ever goes to waste, Not a gesture of gentleness ever goes awry. The unselfish one is the happiest person in the world, You'll find joy when you answer someone's cry. You're thirsty, you seek a glass of water, That is just plain necessity. Someone else is thirsty, you share your last glass, That my friend, is plain humanity. When self-preservation turns trivial, ‘n humanity common sense, That's when a star is born, amidst all self-serving nuisance.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 77 Be a muse to the world, not a mole. Be a flute to the world, not a fluke. Be a whistle to the world, not a hoax. Be a warm coat to the world, not a coup. Be O2 to the world, not CO. Be water to the world, not booze. Be a castle to the world, not another chaos. Be ointment to the world, not another wound. If you can't be a castle, be an apartment, If you can't be an apartment, be a hut. It's not about the size of your sacrifice, It's about the intent, you impetuous lovenut! Be a lamp, ladder or lego, what, it doesn't matter. Just be something that makes the world better.”

“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.”

“Amantes Assemble Sonnet 9 The world doesn't need more avengers, but amantes. Hear me well, my brave amantes, it's time to assemble! More than Captain America we need Amelia Earhart, More than Madame Web we need Madame Curie-like rebel. Scrutinize all tradition with a fresh set of eyes, Rebel against dogma, and stand up to discrimination. Beliefs and doctrines surely have their place, But none of it is above scrutiny of the new generation. Each generation is to write their new set of laws, Learning from the triumphs and downfalls of yesterday. You just remember, that all roads lead to people, And life that doesn't lift people is life gone astray. Ayudar a la gente es la salvación de la mente. Elevación de la gente es la elevación de la mente.”

“Chosen by Choice (The Sonnet) Choose yourself by yourself, Be the chosen by choice. Nobody's gonna come to choose you, Without any self-interest. Nobody's gonna pop out of fiction, And choose you to lift the world. The world is your family, You are their self-determined vanguard You are the chooser, you are the choice, You alone are the divine intervention. One who is responsible is also divine, What is indifferent is simply damnation. Choose yourself as the world's defender. There's no greater defender than an unbent lover.”

“Carving Inclusion (The Sonnet) Carving a sonnet of inclusion on a statue, Does not magically make a nation accepting. There ain't gonna be no inclusion unless we, Stop filibustering, and start love-mustering. Turning back the clock on cultural diversity, Does not make a nation strong and progressive. Traditions that refuse inclusion and expansion, Are sheer poison in the path of societal uplift. A rigid nation is no nation but a primitive tribe, A civilized community practices reason and warmth. Economy does not make a nation super power, Equality and inclusion reveal its true worth. Assimilation is to be etched upon the national heart, Only then we can call such heart a human heart.”

“No Time, No Space (The Sonnet) There is no time, no space, There is only love. There is no intellect, no philosophy, There is only love. There is no defeat, no victory, There is only love. There is no loss, no gain, There is only love. There is no path, no pedestrian, There is only love. There is no mission, no means, There is only love. All of us are either echoes of love beyond chains, Or just some traditional trash of glory and gain.”

“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.”

“Selfless Nuts (The Sonnet) If someone wants to do harm they'll do harm, Whether they have nukes or sticks and stone. If someone wants to do good they'll do good, Whether they have a billion dollars or just one. Intention is the mother of all good deeds 'n bad, It has got nothing to do with having resources. With intention one bread can feed ten people, It cannot feed even one when there is no intent. A world that is run by greed stops for nobody, Who cares what such a world thinks as righteous! In such a world you gotta throw caution to the wind, And stand as pillar of service among the retards. Long enough snobbish retards have ruled the world! Now it is time for selfless nuts to take charge.”

“Gods by The Hundreds (The Sonnet) Some people fear christ, Some claim to hear christ. I work restless day and night, To raise the living christs. Some people fear god, Some claim to be prophets. I work without sleep and rest, To raise gods by the hundreds. One week of my life produces enough electricity, To power a 100 years of humanitarian endeavor. One life laid down to lift up the society, Triggers a wildfire of sacrificial fervor. I am but an instrument in the making of legends. I am but a matchstick to light up the sapiens.”

“World is My Valentine (The Sonnet) My first and foremost love is society, Romance 'n things are second priority. My love seeks not to be loved in return, In fact, my love thrives in cold nonreciprocity. Mine is not to reason why, mine is to love and die, There's no greater love than that of a one-sided lover. The world is to me what Julia was to Saint Valentine, And what the impoverished were to Nicholas Santa. A world anemic in love needs a day to celebrate love, I am a lover eternal, for me every day is valentine's day. The world is my valentine, as such it is under my care, It's my duty to protect it from Claudius' mischievous play. I shall stop breathing before I break this pledge of mine. There's no greater power than the pledge of a lover divine.”

“Honor He Wrote Sonnet 12 After all this time, the sun doesn't say to us, Listen you guys, you owe all your light to me. The trees don’t grab our throat with its vines, And yell, all your air and food are my charity. A candle does not burn to be appraised, But because to burn is the purpose of a candle. A candle not burning is no candle at all, Be a burning candle and live life purpose-driven. Life is a vessel of infinite majesty and potential, Let us not let it rot at the shore playing safe. Come hail or high water, let us be shredded, Let us be annihilated in service and in help. Let us be human, let us be alive across all narrowness. Let us be the shinning beacon of supreme unselfishness.”

“Sonnet Krantistani To hell with fear, To hell with insecurity! Stand up with conviction, To hell with serenity! Enough with pretend revolution, Enough with jungly aum shanti! For once in your life grow up o soldier, Breaking all biases become krantistani. Your footsteps will strike terror in terrorists, Your voice will give chills to the divisionists. Turn your existence into a beacon of help, Possess this world with acts of love and uplift. Killing terrorists and tyrants don't end inhumanity. Oust them all, then irrigate the soil with solidarity. (Krantistani: Citizen of Revolution, Aum Shanti: Archaic Peace Chant)”
