The Anti-Fanaticism SonnetAcceptance begets harmony,Reason begets solution.Solidarity conquers agony,Character conquers differentiation.Humility brings sanity,Forgiveness brings serenity.Patience breeds tenacity,Conscience breeds sanctity.Observation causes insight,Questions cause evolution.Self-correction facilitates might,Self-reliance facilitates ascension.So wake up and trample all fanaticism,Only then we'll be free from sectarianism.

Love Alone Triumphs (The Sonnet)Great people have often said,Truth alone triumphs.I am no great but a plain human,So I say, love alone triumphs.Truth may require intellect,Inquiry requires some cynicism.To be loving needs none of that,Love lights up the darkest chasm.Keep your intellect if you desire,Explore further the arc of truth.But all the discovery means nothing,If countless souls go without food.It is far better to be an insane lover,Than to be a heartless discoverer.

Books Over Bombs (The Sonnet)Bombs kill terrorists,Books kill terrorism.Missiles kill extremists,Mindfulness kills extremism.Guns kill supremacists,Goodness kills supremacy.Law restrains cruel people,Love reforms cruelty.Sarin cripples the malicious,Service cures malice.C4 impairs the prejudiced,Curiosity treats prejudice.Violence can be revolution no more.For all degradation kindness is the cure.

No Rest (The Sonnet)There is no rest,Till the last drop of tear is wiped out.There is no leisure,Till the voiceless can speak aloud.There is no relaxing,Till the last empty stomach is fed.There is no sleep,Till all droopy spines are made straight.There is no joy,Till the last grey life is colored.There is no comfort,Till the last anxious soul is empowered.The struggle isn't over till the fallen rise.Security later, first let us be civilized.

Sonnet of IdentityTell me O Mississippi,What is my name?For I lost my sense of self,In line of service without gain.Dear mountains of Blue Ridge,Where did I come from?I fathom not the worldly titles,I deny narrowness as the norm.Character makes the person,Not pedigree and tradition.If I can lift even five lives,That’ll be my highest salvation.So forget that I asked about my identity.Service is my culture and my nationality.

In Line of Service (The Sonnet)World is my Louisiana,I am its Mississippi.Whenever it's in trouble,My blood boils in agony.Each drop of tear around,Makes my bones ignite.My life finds its meaning,As I respond to their plight.Joy is only joy to me,When I bring it to others.If gained in line of service,Even wounds are my treasures.Once I die for the people’s future,Then I can live in peace forever.

Take My Life (The Sonnet)Take my life if you want,But nothing can take my sight away.Take my breath if you want,But nothing can take my might away.Take my feet if you want,But nothing can take my journey away.Take my arms if you want,But nothing can take my touch away.Take my tongue if you want,But nothing can take my voice away.Take my bones if you want,But nothing can take my will away.You can erase me from earth if you so desire,But you can't stop my ideas from spreading like wildfire.

Sonnet of PathsScience means nothing,Unless we use it to lift the society.Philosophy means nothing,Unless it empowers humanity.Religion means nothing,Unless it advocates for inclusion.Technology means nothing,Unless it aids in collective ascension.Tastes are plenty in our world,So are the paths that humans take.But if those paths hold no humanity,Fabric of civilization will soon break.Placing on humanity our prime attention,Together we’ll attain true emancipation.

Divinity for Sale (The Sonnet)When a book becomes religion,And doctrines become divinity,Holiness remains speculation,Society loses sight of humanity.When institutions claim authority,And sleeping masses comply,Religion disappears altogether,What remains is potential gone awry.When popes and pundits sell faith,In the name of divine supremacy,Rigidity overrules common sense,And reason is hailed as blasphemy.But there is a cure for all this atrocity.It is called individual curiosity.
