And there lies the irony of human life that the sorrows and pains, mostly we consider as the result of either of this life bad deeds or if we don't find console ourselves saying earlier lives' after effect! ! Still, mostly, we do not agree that this human life itself is majorly comprised with miseries only! ! ! ! ! ! ! A genuine topic you raised... Thank you

A great poem, sometimes it's like we live two lives running side by side, one life for the bad, one life for the good.

A great, thought provoking write, life is full of paradoxes and how strange it is that there is no justice!

Life is a paradox and we do not know how its mysteries unfold. Let us hope that at the end everything has a justification because mankind as a whole seeks logic in all our action and in its consequences. Loved it.

Through dejection, we build hope Paradoxes are everywhere. Man oscillates between the two extremes of peace and terror. Hope man comes out of this ambivalence some time.

Valsa I have to say this sounds like a poem that could have fallen out of my own library. I really like this poem for tone and message it carries which is justice and injustice come to all under the sun but for those of wealth and power that hand of justice is torn away. I can't really say what is fair or not because we have been taught the idea of fairness and adapted to the meaning of its interpretation. But what I can say is you have captured the essence of injustice, irony and paradox very well in these words and they are greatly & genuinely appreciated. Ed~

Good poem on the pairs of opposites which, in fact, erect this world of duality in front of our eyes. But, Valsa-ji, there is no need for despair. The supernal justice can be found within oneself if one truly searches. Profound write.
