RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: POEMICS
Ironies
The irony is
Poverty hits hardest those who
don’t believe in helping the poor
The irony is
Global warming most victimizes
those who deny its very existence
The irony is
Homelessness comes to those
who least expect it
The irony is
Those who condemn sins most
loudly are most likely to be tempted
The irony is
Those who cry injustice are often
those who are most unjust
Life is filled with ironies
There runs a steady stream
On the daily news
In our daily lives
In the lives of those we know
In the lives of those we don’t
In a world of the extraordinary
The extraordinary becomes ordinary
Ironic, isn’t it?
