disappointed (re-write)

Disappointed with nothing meaningful
.         when life bids big questions 'Why?'
Whilst conscripts in a faith for 'meek and humble'
.         devoutly swallow lies.
But confounded by ambiguities
.         and those childhood instilled fears,
Each cry of 'WHY?' shouts even louder
.         and death draws ever near.
 
 
.                Neither talk to me of charity
.                nor shame me with goodwill.
.                Or the piousness of that poorest of man
.                who's name is worshipped still.
 
.                N0!.. look instead at their wealth and finery
.                as is launched one more appeal.
.                To empty a poor man’s pocket
.                whilst in $billions those churches deal.
 
 
Such power they have engineered
.         to capture hearts and minds.
With years of crafted psychology
.         and a fear to keep all blind.
But purity of heart was not invented here,
.         though they'd have you believe it so.
For ‘twas ever shown to each newborn child.
.         for so it was,  and will be,  tomorrow.
.

From the bible we learn how the child jesus threw out the corrupt traders who were a part of the then established church/temple. Today google tells us that the wealthiest organisation in the world is a christian church. The biggest financial power on the planet. Yet they look to the poor to repair their church roofs. What would jesus have thought of such wealth and dual standards. (https://www.alux.com/richest-religious-organizations/)
