The City With Paradox Poem by Shubham Agnihotri

The City With Paradox



Some dwell sleepy,
in the city of dreams,
Some dwell creepy,
in the city of screams,
the city is one, but who divides whom?
One kite flies, not in the least, to height in the cloudless sky,
There who tugs whom?
Peace for all but a war freely roams,
some smile, some cry,
but no one hugs one form.

Some sense envy,
in the city with sedition,
Some sense zeal,
in the city with volition,
The Souls are the same, but who defies whom?
One flag hoists, not in all sides, for a bit of time, in the blowing air,
There who sucks up whom?
All of us hate lies, but truth truly burns,
some exult, some yell,
But no one shuns away from the bad of the Foam.

Some thrive daily,
in the city of Veracity,
Some starve daily,
in the city of Venality,
The World is one, but who halts whom?
All wish utopia, but feigning to rein in,
Races want races, but dwarfs win at the end,
Shadows are the same but the light defeats them,
Some palliate, Some founder,
but no one accepts the blames.
