Two Oxymoronic Teasers Poem by Ananta Madhavan

Two Oxymoronic Teasers



1. Exceptional or Not

'Every rule has an exception,
Except this rule'.
Work out that fallacy, if you agree,
Or even if you disagree.

2. Nothing is Constant.

I was told, 'Nothing is constant,
Everything is subject to change.'
If so, dear Know-all,
What you call Change must also change;
Is that a logical oxymoron?
