“Pick a leader who will keep jobs in your country by offering companies incentives to hire only within their borders, not one who allows corporations to outsource jobs for cheaper labor when there is a national employment crisis. Choose a leader who will invest in building bridges, not walls. Books, not weapons. Morality, not corruption. Intellectualism and wisdom, not ignorance. Stability, not fear and terror. Peace, not chaos. Love, not hate. Convergence, not segregation. Tolerance, not discrimination. Fairness, not hypocrisy. Substance, not superficiality. Character, not immaturity. Transparency, not secrecy. Justice, not lawlessness. Environmental improvement and preservation, not destruction. Truth, not lies.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“Rise My Lions,
Be Heroes of Earth!
(Sonnet 1289)

You gotta surpass your intellect and belief,
If you want to stand as healer and peacemaker.
If that's not what you want, do as you please;
My works are not for the self-absorbed taker.

We don't need to build a world of faith,
We don't need to build a world of logic.
We just need to build a world human enough,
To place without prejudice, all faith and logic.

We don't need to build a world with one superpower,
We gotta build a world where the world is superpower.
We don't need a world rotting in diplomatic gutter,
Let's build a world that has no geopolitical clutter.

It's not enough to be a national hero of one nation,
You gotta be a national hero of all nations.
That day I shall call you a human of earth,
When you are the gateway to world illumination.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Orphanizers (Demilitarization Sonnet, 1303)

Show me a nation with a huge defense budget,
I'll show you a demented nation.
Show me a nation with a big education budget,
I'll show you a nation of the future.

Disband the soldiers, empower the teachers,
Thus you plant the paradigm of peace.
Abolish all pride in nation's military,
Thus you emerge as maker of peace.

The real warmongers of the world are,
Not the world leaders, but the civilians,
Who can't think past the strength of military,
Who take pride in a genocidal arsenal of weapons.

With such civilian primitiveness rampant in society,
No conference can ensure the promise of peace.
If you really want to ensure peace on planet earth,
Denounce all politics and democracy militarist.

Stop taking pride in your national military,
That very pride floods the world with orphans.
Amidst the herd of widowmakers and orphanizers,
Wake up alone, and slogan for demilitarization!”
― Abhijit Naskar, Visvavatan: 100 Demilitarization Sonnets

“Who am I? I am Abhijit Naskar, EAS -
Earth Administrative Servant the First.
Who's next - who is thunderful enough,

“Citizenry is the problem,
Citizenry is the answer.
When citizenry decides on peace,
Albeit reluctant, world leaders wither.”

“Politicians don't have race, politicians don't have religion, politicians don't have nationality. You may think, this is a good thing - well, in this case, it's not. You know why? Because their race is self-interest - their religion is self-interest - their nationality is self-interest. Politicians can be white, black, brown or martian - but once a moron, always a moron. Some monkeys are white, some monkeys are colored, but inside they are not white or colored - they are politicians - which means, they are all monkeys.

And the exception to this norm often comes from not so popular parts of the world - for example, South Africa. Which only proves that, you don't need to be a so-called geopolitical superpower to do what's right - you don't have to be a superpower to be a peacemaker. In fact in most cases, the so-called superpowers are the most morally bankrupt states in the world. Because guess what - governments don't exist to do the right thing, governments exist to do whatever keeps them in power. And the day the politics of self-interest comes to an end, there will be no longer any need for activists, humanitarians and reformers.”

“Peace, A Crime Against State
(The Sonnet)

There's no difference between
a soldier and a contract killer.
Hitmen are paid to kill individuals,
Soldiers are paid to kill in bulk.

Righteous soldiers don't exist,
they only exist in fairytale movies.
No academy trains youngsters for peace,
they manufacture state-abiding terrorists.

If any soldier ever wakes up to peace,
they're instantly discharged without honor.
Thinking soldiers are no use to state,
States only want brainless suicide bombers.

Enemy of war is enemy of the state,
Making of peace is crime against state.”
― Abhijit Naskar, World War Human: 100 New Earthling Sonnets

“Peace is a crime against state.”
― Abhijit Naskar, World War Human: 100 New Earthling Sonnets

“Nationalists mark borders by raising guns,
like dogs mark their territory by raising legs.
Monkeys seek refuge in archaic sovereignty,
Human am I, my refuge is the human race.”
― Abhijit Naskar, World War Human: 100 New Earthling Sonnets

“Lives to Serve Before I Sleep
(The Sonnet)

Lives to serve before I sleep,
Service is my salvation.
Wounds to heal before I sleep,
Selfless joy brings illumination.

There are times people need help,
there are times they need motivation.
Keep your mouth absolutely shut,
if you cannot make the distinction.

Bridges to build before I sleep,
Walls are too savage a burden.
Tears to wipe before I sleep,
In human smile lies human heaven.

Chains to hack before I sleep,
Chains hack humanity to pieces.
Peace to plant before I sleep,
Come join me, let's grow a forest!”
― Abhijit Naskar, The Humanitarian Dictator

“Every ape has a talent for war, takes a human to rise in peace.”
