“I Am Idiot (The Sonnet) I am not as stupid as you think, I am far more stupid than that. My stupidity is beyond the grasp of, All puny dreams of heaven and earth. You have no idea how stupid I am, To have an idea is to join the club. What do the calculating snobs know, Of the logic-defying madness of love! The opposite of stupidity is narcissism, I am the stupid beyond all such stupidity. Where animals sell selfishness as sanity, I am drunk, I am dumb, I am but humanity. Better be a human and considered an idiot, Than be a moron and worshipped as sage.”

“Heaven’s Janitor (Sonnet 1024) Pick up a broom, not bombs, Wield a mop, not weapons of mass destruction. Sacred minds make sacred society, Peace comes when the very thought of arms causes repulsion. Heart is heaven, Heart holds the Qi. No magic, no myth, nothing supernatural, just a whole lot of humanity. Qi, Atman, Sentience, Corazon, All are but varied names of humanity. Put superstitions aside and you'll find, Just plain goodness is the supreme epitome. Mop all menacing inhumanity out of your heart. And society will be cleansed of all primeval dirt.”

“Messiahs don't drop from the sky, As mortal suffering jumps the fence. A messiah is just a mortal, Minus all the indifference. Peygambers don't jog down from jennet, As people are troubled by malice. A peygamber is just a regular person, Who has conquered their prejudice. Buddhas don't grow in a zen garden, As the world reeks of bigotry. A buddha is just an ordinary being, Minus all the self-centricity.”

Peygambers don't jog down from jennet, As people are troubled by malice. A peygamber is just a regular person, Who has conquered their prejudice. Buddhas don't grow in a zen garden, As the world reeks of bigotry. A buddha is just an ordinary being, Minus all the self-centricity. Mind is the enemy, mind is the mate. To all wounds of society mind is ointment.”

“Seclusion Won’t Do (The Sonnet) Each of you must turn into a sufi saint, Each of you must turn into a latin lover. Each of you must turn into a shaolin monk, Each of you must turn into a bengal tiger. It won't do to seclude yourself in a monastery, It won't do to seclude yourself behind a desk. The monk must come down to the streets of life, The scholar must till the soil with their sweat. Service of humanity is the fulfillment of divinity, Service of humanity is the right use of intellect. Occasional seclusion is good, to charge up the mind, But life-long seclusion from society is sheer waste. Enlightenment that doesn't eliminate separation is no enlightenment. Intelligence that doesn't elevate the collective is no intelligence.”

“Sonnet 1143 Give me some sunshine, Give me some rain! Why the hell am I asking you, When I'm the steward of my own reign! Ship of society is sinking, O Young and Bold, now hail the helm! Come to the rescue of those lost at sea, To hell with the nonsense of shame and fame! My religion is to rescue the fallen, My creed to care for the persecuted. Faith, reason, nation, I heed none, Obliterated in love heart is illuminated. Shedding all fears both ragged and posh, Let's go play in the courtyard of the cosmos!”
