Paradox Poem

Art, white light through darkness

for all the world to see,

deception through truth.

‘T is the artist

in this, as always, prevails.

Believe, not denying yourself,

Demur, causing your very

Soul to wither in self-betrayal

  1. When we discussed paradox in class, I was fairly good at identifying and explaining them, but I wasn’t that great at writing them. Near the end of that section of class, we were told to copy-change a poem, that was focused on paradoxes. Naturally, I was nervous, but luckily, poetry is my forte. So, I gave it my best shot, and this was my result.
