The Blind Leading The Blind Poem by Qiniso Mogale

In this world the blind are leading the blind
They have eyes but they can't see
Our politicians are blind
Our religious leaders are blind
Most of them can't see beyond their ego
Most of them can't see beyond their pride
Most of them can't see beyond their stomachs.

The blind are leading the blind
Those leading don't have spiritual insight
Those led don't have spiritual insight
Those leading are leading without Christ
Those led are also without Christ
Confusion reigns supreme
Consternation reigns supreme.

The Bible states that without vision people perish
When the blind lead the blind
Social unrest is the order of the day
Violence is the order of the day
Foolish arguments take precedence
Foolish decisions take prominence
The economy crumbles
The education system in shambles
The crime rate sky rockets
Corruption is normalised
Deception is praised
Delusion is harbored.
