The blind, it sees the others' life
A bright idea shines

A greater way for everything
And meaning to their lives

It does its good to teach them of
This better way to live

A life is spent to show the way
And millions lead astray

Firstly welcome aboard. Secondly what is the blind? From the opening line you do not seem to be talking of blind people.

Maybe I took a blind alley or is it the blind leading the....

I will await some smart alec to come along and decipher. I dont see so well these days.

And as I was saying... welcome. A fresh pair of eyes are always welcome :D

Well, I think I let my sense of gender equality get the best of me. What I should've written was ''The blind, he/she sees...'' to point out it's a person. It's the classic ''seeing blind'' metaphor, and this was actually something I made to test the forums, but so far it seems like a relatively active forum, judging by so many comments in so short time :P
