In a world full of Elon Musks,
Be a Dan Price.
Use entrepreneurship to instill equity,
Not as a vessel of disparity’s vice.
In a world full of Jordan Petersons,
Be a Jiddu Krishnamurti.
Use intellect to expand perception,
Not to turn back the clock of primitivity.
In a world full of Donald Trumps,
Be a Dolly Parton, be an Ocasio-Cortez.
Use fame and politics to alleviate anguish,
Not to feed on people’s distress.
Let others adore the crook Edison all they wanna.
You for one be a Marie Curie, be a Nikola Tesla.

Light is a matter of frequency,
reality is a matter of (EM) waves.
I’m talking in a mathematical sense,
and not in a mumbo jumbo sort of way.

Light, there is always,
just not the kind we can see.
Just like our eyes register a limited
spectrum, mind too is blind to plenty.

Our eyes are not equipped to
perceive outside certain spectrum,
just like our mind is conditioned to
see nothing beyond self preservation.

With modern gadgets we can see the full
EM spectrum, beyond the limits of our senses.
Likewise, a well developed character
transcends the very barrier of time and space.

Not sheep, not wolf, be human –
graduate from dogma to divinity.
Take theology out of the sky and
place it in the heart of humanity.

From stars to soil to synapses,
arrangement of atoms dictates reality.
From inanimate to animate to sapient,
humanity is an affair of cosmic serendipity.

All superstitions are practiced as truth,
all entitlement is passed on as enlightenment.
Acts of dogma are perpetrated as divinity,
love-n-reason feels dehumanizing to the intolerant.

Hallucinations are the foundation of perception,
delusions are the foundation of persecution.
Day you grow up to distinguish between the two,
you shall become a pillar of civilization.
