If you can't say anything but

psychology says this,

If you can't utter a single word
without parroting second-hand thought,
my phone deserves more attention than you.
But grow up and muster one original idea,
I'll put aside my writing to listen to you.”

“Book Bans Are Dumb
(Sonnet 1587)
Book bans are dumb,
It makes the mind numb.
If banning books were justice,
Middle ages would've been fun.
I’ve got Mein Kampf on my shelf,
next to bible, quran and vedanta.
You cannot fathom the wholeness of life,
if you let expansion be dictated by law.
Expansion can't be contained by law,
concocted in the gutter of tribalism.
Burning books doesn't prevent darkness,
It only obstructs illumination.
Book bans are dumb,
it makes the world numb.
Read reason, fiction, the lot -
Stretch your mind beyond medieval vision.”

“Education is not
western or eastern -
no matter the geography,
education is education.
It must call out superstition
and prejudice wherever it festers,
just like it must call out
cold intellectual arrogance.”

“Knowledge behind Paywall
(Open Access Sonnet)
Knowledge aloof from people,
locked shut behind paywall,
bears no significance in society,
holds no worth whatsoever.
That's why huge chunks of my works,
are accessible freely to the world.
In fact, if I had no bills to pay,
would've given away my last miracle word!
Record of light is not proof of light,
Light must be proven by existence alone.
Over a third of my sonnets are available
free, including some of my most potent ones.
Light accessible only to select elites,
is not light, but filth uncivilized.
Paywall is a violation of knowledge,
it vilifies the sanctity of human light.”

“God Eyes (Sonnet)
Perception is not a measure of reality,
perception is a measure of distance -
from afar the sun is a dot,
from farther the milkyway is a dot,
from farther still the universe is a dot.
Likewise, from afar God is an entity,
from up close, God is a state of mind,
get closer still, and you are God.
Perception is like an oscillator circuit,
alter the value of the resistor or
capacitor, and you change the oscillation.
Likewise, truth changes based on the
resistance, ie. ignorance, and capacitance,
ie. awareness, of your vantage point.”
