Irony

Irony

P K Routray

Aid some, the society to smoothly function,

they are lawyers, doctors, engineers and so on

There also thrive antisocial elements like thieves,

banes are they to society and at their acts, the society grieves

Fallacy and irony we find in the wishes of both classes

It is only for humor not to tarnish the images of their august branches.

Some wishes have blemishes, meant for their own prosperity.

For roaring business the doctors may wish ill health in the society

For good practices lawyers wish the society to have more legal complication/

For their professional prosperity engineers cause environmental degradation.

The police wish criminals and crimes not to vanish but to exist

so that they have challenges, success and satisfaction to detect and resist.

Teachers may be wishing young generations to remain long with ignorance

so that they can part knowledge and exhibit their importance.

But thieves want the society to prosper and be rich

to steal more, they will have plenty within their easy reach.
