Is It Not Seductive To Actas A Big Shot? Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Act like a big shot.
You are always admired.
You are somebody.
Is it not seductive?

To sit always on the top,
you are up there,
you can play with your influence,
you can manipulate human beings.
Is it not evil?

To act as a loving man
and play with others
with the intention
of lustful satisfaction?
Is not alluring?

And yet there was one
who refused to do so,
who lived differently.

Instead of profiting from power,
he served the poor and downtrodden.
Instead of relationship games,
he spread respect and trust.
Instead of circling
around oneself,
he opened himself to God-
Jesus of Nazareth.
