Terzanelle for Blind Man's Bluff

Terzanelle for Blind Man’s Bluff

A giant retina, the earth is going blind.
Cataracts cloud the once clear vision
Murky darkened images block the sun’s rays

Brown smoggy haze obscures wise decisions
Viewed through lenses of distortion, guile
Cataracts cloud the once clear vision

Deceit, war, pre-emption: a sightless style
Myopic, blind men lead the mindless blind
Viewed through lenses of distortion, guile

Blind Man’s Bluff, unkind, the game refined
Brinksmanship, an eye chart on the edge
Myopic, blind men lead the mindless blind

Teetering toes on the precipice’s ledge
Peer chillingly into the sinister chasm
Brinksmanship, an eye chart on the edge

Frightened eyes twitch like Saint Vitas spasms
Chant supplications, scream through silent nights
Peer chillingly into the sinister chasm
A giant retina, the earth is going blind
