CLICHÉ’

“Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.” Matthew 15:14 (KJV)

a pattern is set
this is how it is done
we follow some rules
we don’t fully understand
when lies are repeated
like a melancholic chant
a truth is then reshaped
by a fiery preacher’s rant

standards are set
choices are confined
within a fenced enclosure
and a tapered state of mind
the purpose is the just the same
though differently designed
a common cliché is spoken
a blind leading a blind
