"Nose Versus Eyes" is a poem written by William Cowper". Here in this poem sensory organs are personified. Eyes and Nose have come to the court to settle the ownership dispute of the spectacles. The tongue is a lawyer. The ear as judge. It pokes fun at absurd decisions arrived at in jurisprudence when the law is applied.
Competition is good if we compete with ourselves rather than comparing and competing with others. This forward movement is what living should be all about!
