Corporate Christ! <br />You’ve taken root <br />In you’re corporate suit. <br />Your officially owned <br />Loaned out to the highest bidder. <br />As your soul begins to wither <br />no one can save you. <br />Your best efforts are left at the foot of your crucified body. <br />Now sponsorship deals <br />reveal more about you <br />than you first knew <br />everything is sponsored even your baby blue eyes, you dream of starry skies. <br />but it all tastes the same <br />bloody rain <br />pain on pain. <br />You stare at adverts <br />dream of what you can own <br />while all manner of people die alone <br />you’re dreaming of your dream home <br />and an identity not of your own <br />your dreaming of being someone else <br />where is it getting you? <br />where is it getting your mental health? <br />where is all the happiness you once craved? as you grow ever more depraved wanting to be saved and searching for an answer but the question is still out of reach! <br />This is not meant as an anti Christian poem but can be taken as a strong rebuff for all who would use God as a way of making money and preying on peoples hopes and dreams!<br /><br />Daniel Hooks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/corporate-christ/
