“We're not born equal (Bicycle Diaries, 2766)

Astrology is the dumbest superstition of all,
your date of birth has zero effect on your destiny,
but your place of birth, on the other hand,
shapes a great deal of your life and character.

Someone born in Paris demands from their parents,
that they must go on a world tour again this year,
someone born in Palestine asks their parents,
can they have a small doll this year.

Someone growing up in the blackhole of Calcutta,
has to labor 100 times harder to make a name,
than someone from Cambridge or Copenhagen.

Light bends towards gravity,
equality bends towards privilege,
some dream of touring the moon,
some dream of a roof over head.

We're not all born equal, some of us
are born with more than two functioning
brain cells, but no inherited goldmine,
still we chart the cosmos on a bicycle,
while monkeys confuse lamborghini with life.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Nazmahal: Palace of Grace
