Shake not thy head at my jessture
My words of peace resent not it's might
I defie the wrath of fallen angels
I seek for all devine truth and balance
I seek not the world, but the spirit

Is thy life a true temple of self peace?
Are thy content with thy t.v and phone?
Are thy content with items of no use?
Are thy content to "live to work-not work to live"?

Is a proposal of self discovery
A proposal of self freedom so amiss
To the mass of such in growth
It is in that then it must be asked
"Has thy spirit truly passed away"?

I understand what you mean. Jesus said at Luke 12:15, “Keep YOUR eyes open and guard against every sort of covetousness, because even when a person has an abundance his life does not result from the things he possesses.”

This poem has a lot of grammatical/spelling errors that need to be fixed. The use of "thy" is really distracting. Keep in mind that this archaic form of English was out of date even when the King James Version of the bible was first printed. Jesus Christ did not speak archaic English, so although you may be trying to sound pious, it just sounds strange. Keep working at it, and maybe read some poetry in present day English or a modern translation of the bible for tips.
