Too Many Cooks Spoil the Broth
Too many voices cloud the clear design,
A single vision holds a better line.
When all attempt to steer the simple dish,
It fails to satisfy the hungry wish.
Adds a spice, a pinch, brings new ideas,
Until the true intention disappears.
The pot becomes a muddled, failed affair,
A consequence that no one wants to bear.
