People trying to find
themselves in a lost mankind.

Grasping for money and fame,
not knowing what is the aim.
 
Hoping for a day
when worries will be washed away.

While Jesus knocks on our door,
waiting to heal our world at war.

someone found jesus at a door, weping; he had just read nietzsche and realised he'd lost his father; i sat next to him after reading the same, and in a sense of asking ackowledgement of comfort, told him ; he had been right from the beginning, only no one understood the catching fish thing (because a little effort is involved) -- and now there's only doctrine; and a decision between this, and poetry.

Spectacular work. Very insightful, fantastically written!

This poem makes the assumption that we all in  the same boat. Statements such as people this , people that are bad writings and as poetry have little value. Another thing, and I say this as a matter of structure and presentation of the poem on the page. The first line is a very bad run-on line. You should have done it this way:
People trying to find themselves
In a lost mankind.
When the reader reads this he  makes a little stop at the end of themselves and then continue to the next line. This is better here for the breath.
The expression "people..... in  a lost mankind is a bit faulty for mankind and people are the same thing. Now if you say  something liken people try to find themselves in a lost wealth, this is an example, you can use what you wish., the situation  makes sense
This poem have many problems. The ones I talk about , with my subjective explanation, are just a few.
Thanks!
