Sayings (6) (of selective blindness)
should one seek actions
before words
or think that words define knowledge*
there is grave error. much blame.
vision is obstructed, most
of all from the sides@. the path
wanders. liars shout of truth#
and attempt to lead.
escape comes only from
the fall of towers^. if their cities fall
all must die who know only
of life within them.
if one pauses,
seeking silence, wisdom
and firm correctness
there may be no blame.
_______________________________________________
* knowledge that binds, binds only seeing not being.
@the obstructed vision is foiled by assumptions and defeats peripheral visions; the path made by the half-blind wanders.
#and they always shall
^”freedom” comes from escaping the cities but many cannot and survive.
