This is how we make all lives matter (The Sonnet) | Handbook of Hatebusting
Wherever a black life is shot of suspicion,
I am that black life that didn’t matter.
Wherever a woman is forced to remain pregnant,
I am that woman who doesn’t matter.
Wherever a muslim is presumed terrorist,
I am that muslim who doesn’t matter.
Wherever a queer life is persecuted,
I am that queer who doesn’t matter.
Standing up to cannibalism requires,
No exclusive background and identity.
All that matters is that you are human,
Only requirement of justice is humanity.
This is how we make all lives matter, all lives free.
Injustice on anyone anywhere is injustice on me.

To See Color (The Sonnet) | Ingan Impossible
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.

Naskaristan, The Sonnet | Abhijit Naskar | Insan Himalayanoğlu
Where no one cries of hunger,
For neighbor comes before netflix,
No one needs bulletproof backpacks,
For children come before profits,
Where women can pursue their dreams,
Without being castrated by masculinity,
Where a mother can feed her child,
Without attracting prehistoric insecurity,
Where love isn’t chained to archaic texts,
For reform triumphs over rigidity,
Where all colors make the rainbow of life,
For life isn’t chained to no ideology,
Where reason outshines all superstition,
Heartland beyond hateland is Naskaristan.

Offsprings of Africa (Black History Sonnet) | Abhijit Naskar | Bulletproof Backbone
If a black family lives
long enough in a cold climate,
in about 100 generations or so,
their descendants will be born white.
This is how the white people were born,
Because we all come from a black mother.
No matter where we live on earth,
We’re all Africans – our homeland, Africa.
Till you get this anthropological fact,
You are but a traitor to earth.
Black History is World History,
We are all offsprings of Africa.

Black is Brave, Woman is Wonder – Abhijit Naskar, Azad Earth Army
No one else anywhere will have to suffer, it ends with us – the prejudice, the bigotry, the stupidity, the superstition, the fanaticism, all masquerading as sanity – it ends with us.
Black is brave,
Woman is wonder,
Muslim is magnetic,
Asian is thunder.
Prejudice is plunder,
Biases are blunder.
Hate wreaks havoc,
when hearts are asunder.
