“You know how the dinosaurs went extinct - they committed suicide when they saw the white man coming. They said to themselves, clearly white men are the apex predator of earth, so there's no point of us being!
Asteroids wiped out the dinosaurs, caucasteroids wiped out civilizations. Colonialism was a mass extinction event, yet no textbook has the spine to bear the burden.”
― Kral Fakir: When Calls The Kainat

“When Whiteness Collapses (Sonnet)
When the whites benefit from privilege,
it's part and parcel of colonial heritage,
but when a giant rises from the marginals,
it eclipses the shallow heights of whiteness.
I'm colored, I'm scientist,
I'm poet, I'm polyglot -
coming from zero money,
I won the world with words.
Try and get your puny white brains
around this existence enigma -
compile your white canons of a century,
and they turn bleak next to just one year
of multicultural, multidisciplinary Naskar.
I never grovelled to be included,
I let my vastness out,
and the world queues for my grace.”
