“I hate getting mad, for when I get mad, compared to me Escobar seems like a chocolate bar.”
Abhijit Naskar, Woman Over World: The Novel

“Handcrafted Humanity Sonnet 19

It takes awareness to be human,
To be animal it takes none.
It takes moderation to be human,
To be animal it takes none.
It takes regulation to be human,
To be animal it takes none.
It takes restraint to be human,
To be animal it takes none.
It takes gentleness to be human,
To be animal it takes none.
It takes humility to be human,
To be animal it takes none.
Everything civilized starts with awareness.
But if you like being animal let go off all restraint.”
Abhijit Naskar, Handcrafted Humanity: 100 Sonnets For A Blunderful World
