One fine day in the middle of the night, two dead men got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard the noise, he went and killed those two dead boys. If you don't believe this lie is true, ask the blind man, he saw it too!
Answer
The famous speaker who no one had heard of said:
Ladies and jellyspoons, hobos and tramps,
cross-eyed mosquitos and bow-legged ants,
I stand before you to sit behind you
to tell you something I know nothing about.
Next Thursday, which is Good Friday,
there's a Mother's Day meeting for fathers only;
wear your best clothes if you haven't any.
Please come if you can't; if you can, stay at home.
Admission is free, pay at the door;
pull up a chair and sit on the floor.
It makes no difference where you sit,
the man in the gallery's sure to spit.
The show is over, but before you go,
my ballsdrew their swords and shot each other.A deaf policeman heard the noise,
and came and killed the two dead boys.
A paralysed donkey passing by
kicked the blind man in the eye;
knocked him through a nine-inch wall,
into a dry ditch and drowned them all.
If you don't believe this lie is true,
ask the blind man; he saw it too,
through a knothole in a wooden brick wall.
And the man with no legs walked away.

In William Wordsworth's poem "Daffodils," an example of oxymoron can be found in the phrase "lonely as a cloud." Here, the juxtaposition of "lonely," which suggests isolation, and "cloud," which often evokes a sense of vastness and freedom, creates a striking contrast. This oxymoron effectively conveys the speaker's feelings of solitude while also highlighting the beauty and expansiveness of nature. The use of such contrasts enhances the emotional depth of the poem.
An oxymoron is a term or statement that contradicts itself, or seems to. Examples often given are "giant shrimp" or "controlled chaos". Some are literary effects designed to create a paradox, while others are done for humor. The poem "A Photograph" contains the oxymoron "laboured ease", which in the context of loss may mean avoiding the public display of grief. (The poem is available at the related link.)

An example of an oxymoron in "The Raven" is the phrase "silken, sad, uncertain rustling" used to describe the noise of the curtains in the poem. This is an oxymoron because silk is typically associated with luxury and softness, while sadness and uncertainty are contrasting emotions.
