Revolutionaries do not make revolutions. The revolutionaries are those who know when power is lying in the street and then they can pick it up.

We revolutionaries acknowledge the right to revolution when we see that the situation is no longer tolerable, that it has become a frozen. Then we have the right to overthrow it.

This open eye for possible alternatives which need to be scrutinized before we can determine which is the best grounded is profoundly disconcerting to all conservatives and to almost all revolutionaries.

Academia forcibly tells you about all the great men and revolutionaries, and rebels, especially the rebels, who have changed the world for the better. But they wouldn't notice him were he standing right in front of them.

Indignation boils my blood at the thought of the heritage we are throwing away; at the thought that, with few exceptions, the fight for freedom is left to the poor, forlorn and defenseless, and to the few radicals and revolutionaries who would make use of liberty to destroy, rather than to maintain, American institutions.

The strength of the revolutionaries
On a strong note, scents spurt from flowers.
They spread, grow weak and dissolve in the air.
On a strong note, revolutionaries rise.
They rush, turn mild and merge with the main stream.

Kamaradi A Hero
Kindly lived with power,
Ambitious to help his people,
Man lived with human kind heart,
Attended in positive revolutionaries,
Rea ranged human into self awareness,
Antagonized with faithfulness,
Died young for the truth,
I and you should be the comreds following his steps.

True revolutionaries are like God - they create the world in their own image. Our awesome responsibility to ourselves, to our children, and to the future is to create ourselves in the image of goodness, because the future depends on the nobility of our imaginings.

Freedom's Talons
rage wrecked revolutionaries,
burning, self-combust, immoliate...
cant seem to break the damned glass.
the bowl wont fit through the bars!
the groaning child's fingers,
open and close, open and close...
the dry stink whimper and shudder,
the child dies of hunger...
freedom's talons tear at the flesh!

Arab Spring
There's much ado about the Arab Spring;
It has about it such a pleasant ring.
We in the West can really feel exalted
By how the Arab countries have revolted.
But lately I must say I've been observing
Developments that really are disturbing
For Muslim fundamentalists are grinning
As at the ballot boxes they are winning.
Now revolutionaries are depressed;
They fear the rights they've won will be suppressed,
For victory over tyrants quickly pales
When women have to hide behind their veils;
And from the past we know the lessons clear;
That those who don't conform will live in fear,
For there at fundamentalism's core
Among the shadows hides - Sharia Law.
The end result's too early yet too call
But let us hope the Spring is not the Fall.

He Walked To The Gallows Firmly(A Tribute To Khudiram Bose-The First Martyr Of Armed Freedom Movement)
He walked to the gallows,
Firmly and cheerfully and
Even smiled when the cap,
Was drawn over his head!
Though failed mission,
He was the first torch-bearer,
Of Fiery-age of Indian-freedom-movement.
At that age of eighteen,
When boys beguile time in
Day-dreaming, thinking of career,
He took pistol in his hand,
To liberate mother-land from,
The tyrants' clutch!
But, mistakenly, he and,
Prafulla Chaki, ended two,
Innocent lives! .......
Chaki took his own life,
And Khudiram, as a chained lion,
Did not bow his head.
He was sentenced to,
Death, and hanged on,
Eleventh August,1908.
The First martyr among,
The revolutionaries he,
Became and gave birth to,
Hundreds of Khudirams,
In the then Bangladesh!
History wrote his and,
Prafulla Chaki's name,
In golden letters.......
None could wipe it out!

Thank You, America!
Thank you, America! for rescuing us from hell,
Humble humans deprived of all rights to life.
In our old country our enemies cruelly quell
Laborers, intellects, revolutionaries, monks alike.
Thank you, America! for teaching us systematism
By which military is only a part of attribution.
In our late republic existed militarism
Causing dictatorship to erode the constitution.
Thank you, America! for the example to settle
The difference between politics and religion.
In our poor nation the priests did meddle
In worldly powers, and it was mutual demolition.
Thank you, America! for granting us medium
To develop our bodies and expand our minds.
In our left-behind state there is no freedom
To work and enjoy, think and express any kinds.
Thank you, America! for nursing us deep hope
For a near future we can True Virtue attain
So that our Motherland emerge on the globe,
Our People, with your help, Man’s Value regain.

Words Flow Like 'EBONICS
Words flow like Ebonics
You know, you know
That beat popping
Rhythmic sound of the ghetto—
Cognitive thought
Verbalize within the heartbeat
Of the city
Children voices-echoes
Sounds of spoken-word—
Our thoughts
Implanted in oral history—
History of revolutionaries
Freedom speakers
Breaking down cultural barriers—
Words flow like Ebonics
You know, you know
Gangster rappers-street talkers
Translating the agony of the city—
City slum dwellers
Seeking voices of advocacy
For the representation of diplomacy
Words of armor will protect thee—
So in the end
Remember this
Street talking-gangster rapping
Weapons of revolutionary thought
Created vices to be taught—
Words flow like Ebonics
You know, you know!

The Great Three
At one time when the country was ruled by creul british
there came the Tremendous three
who were on mission to make our country free
they distributed templates
to stop their mission
the british called simon commission
they knew it was test of the best
against simon they made protest
but it proved them costly
as their leader was beaten by sticks
furious by their behaviour
it was time to teach british lesson
The officer guilty deserved the punishment
it was justice
After some days
once again the british at its creulity
for their pleasure
they were going with train of treasure
the Revolutionaries decide to do justice
they steal the train
The british pass bill
which made sure that the farmers will not get justice
it was test of best
as they protest
in the Assembly they throw bomb
the british catch the tremendous three
the punishment they get is hanged till death
but fear is stranger to them
as they happily hang themselves
and they still say
long live the revolution
vande mataram
I proud to be indian
