Just why?

a poem by Raju R

Why is it I am to worship god
   Who created devils and then killed them
Why is it I am to worship god
   Who were cunning, manipulative and biased
Why is it I am made to worship god
   Who granted a devil a boon and created another god to kill him
Why is it I am made to worship god
   Scaling heights and countless steps when god’s everywhere
Why is it I am made to worship god
   Who now no longer kills devils and devils galore?
Why is it I am made to worship god
   Who is now robbed abused and is fought for
Why is it I am made to worship god
   Who now sits around marble tiles, greedy priests and just doesn’t care.
