Neurovision (Sonnet) – Abhijit Naskar, Neurosonnets

Mind is one big lie,
unless you examine everything.
Life is one big blind spot,
unless you question everything.
All prejudice comes with a flag,
all discrimination comes with a badge.
Nothing civilized in waving the flag,
real honor is to outgrow archaic trash.
If you must wave, wave the flag of those
who are stripped of their life and dignity.
Wave the rainbow, wave the watermelon –
lift up those thrown in manufactured obscurity.
If left to tradition, every mind
is a septic tank of superstition.
But nourish it with heart and reason,
and mind is sanctuary of illumination.
