Amor Apocalypse (An Excerpt)
Amor Apocalypse is headed our way,
Now that Roe vs Wade is overturned.
Love is where the scrotum-brain scotus,
Will lay next their filthy hand.
First they came for our choice,
Then they’ll come for our love.
Soon they’ll go for good old lynching,
Land of the free will be land of the shrubs.
Straight and queer are products of a bipolar world,
In the sanctuary of love there’s no straight, no queer.
In love’s domain queer is straight, straight is queer,
A heart full of love and light is radiantly nonpolar.
I say this with all my humility,
To the fundamentalists particularly.
This is not meant for those of faith,
Who never claim ideological supremacy.
What do the dumbbells of bible know,
About the bold serendipities of love!
What do the captives of koran know,
About the welcoming language of the dove!
What do the vultures of vedas know,
About the elimination of assumption!
What do the militants of atheism know,
About the sweetness of assimilation!
I learnt my religion on the streets,
Like Jesus, Gautama, Shams and Shankara.
Given the choice between dogma and love,
The human always chooses love over dogma.
Love finds new meaning in every age,
Each amplifies the glory of the last one.
Those who fear expansion out of insecurity,
Deserve only pity not serious consideration.
But beware o lovers, hate not those,
Who stand as obstacle in your love.
Lovers are born to conquer hate and fear,
To reciprocate them is to dishonor love.

Dharmanator (The Nonduality Sonnet) | Abhijit Naskar | Merry Christmas 2023
“You can neither fathom nor manifest the true vastness of the human mind, with your puny binary eyes of belief and disbelief – facts and fiction – capitalism and socialism – democracy and autocracy – logicality and sentimentality.”
“Dharmanator (The Nonduality Sonnet)
Pani, Agua, Water, it’s all one;
Ubuntu, Advaita, Ahava, it’s all one;
Creation, Consciousness, Evolution, it’s all one;
To fathom this you gotta unlearn all separatism.
Division imposed by facts and intellect is just
as degrading as those imposed by faith and fiction.
True light of knowledge obliterates all divide,
instead of turning mind into a dumpyard of reason.
When a computer engineer becomes a monk,
then that monk becomes a brain scientist,
your revered paradigms are bound to crumble,
as all institutions stand on grounds separatist.
Apes may be stuck in prehistoric duality,
Norm of the cosmos is nonduality.
With your binary eyes of belief and disbelief,
You’ll never wake up to cosmic serendipity.
Move past your psychoduality,
If you wanna unfold human vastness.
Faith and logic both will turn bland,
Once you wake up to sapiosentience.”

Letter from The Mountaintop (Sonnet 2252) – Abhijit Naskar – Sonnets From The Mountaintop (Cover Reveal)
Cosmos is colored,
all color is kin.
Scarlight makes the mind,
sunlight makes the skin.
Life is nonbinary,
existence is nonbiblical.
When ‘sacred’ is anagram for ‘scared’,
to sin is our Earth Gospel.
Churchill and Columbus belong in the jungle,
loudmouth karens belong in mental institution.
Those who’ve been to the mountaintop,
grow too human for the dunghills of dogma.
Here at the mountaintop, we’re just humans –
no black, no white, no believer, nonbeliever –
here at the mountaintop, we’re each other’s keeper.
