Literally

John 9:40  And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words,

and said unto him, Are we blind also? 

John 9:41  Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin:

but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

 

 

A state of confusion thoughts disorganized

 

Magnified conclusion embraced by parasites

 

Supposed good intentions based on the deprived

 

Gone all apprehension as disaster has arrived

 

 

 

Planks in disarray hammered into oneness

 

It seems the only way to wall-in the heartless

 

What is left to say if the voices of the fearless

 

Are demanding pay of the poor and the helpless?

 

 

 

Where has sincerity gone in this dead-end street?

 

It was traveling alone in Hand with God’s speed

 

Now dried to the bone I can’t even see my need

 

A double minded clone is what I discover in me
