<p>It is challenging to refute the notion that a form of valuesism can be discerned in the high-level poetry of each historical period. This valises can be defined as the portrayal of the oppressed in opposition to the oppressor and the new system or the poet's aspirational vision in contrast to the established traditions. It can also be argued that the fundamental idealism inherent in poetry is what renders it meaningful to future readers. In classical Urdu poetry rather than religious extremism mystical tolerance elevated human and moral values in opposition to ritualism and an emphasis on the world of dreams and imagination in contrast to the undesirable contemporary situation we find different manifestations of idealism. The tone of sarcasm the genres that represent tyranny and the attitude of dissatisfaction with one's position can be seen as a search for ideals and values. The entire tradition of satirical poetry or Shahr Ashob in Urdu represents this conflict of values. However it is important to note that Urdu satirical poetry and Shahr Ashob patterns often exhibit instances where the satirical element does not transcend the level of mere city chaos. In some instances the poet's frustration and psychological emptiness become intertwined with the chaos. It can be argued that the validity of this enchantment is such that it cannot be broken largely because the inevitability of weight and harmony in our poetic tradition has often meant that the concept of celibacy in poetry has not been exposed in a sufficiently rigorous manner. .</p>
