Priests Poems - Poems about Priests


Premium Member Outside the Camp
Outside the camp In mocking cruelty They crucified Their King. ‘Away with him’ They cried, And thus Religion triumphed For another day, The status quo Preserved for priests Impelled by hatred To defend their faulted cause. Too blind to see The God-writ symbols Of their ancient rites, Those pointers To the Prince of Life They pierced And pinned Outside the camp. They saw their deed A timely vindication Of their careful rule To keep the Roman peace. This self-appointed Christ Suits...

Premium Member Predatory Transgressor Priests
Accept the "Holy Fathers" stains? What prideful tolerance sustains The acts by priestly "Confessors" Whose transgressions we all deplore. Their molestations cause such pain That no repentance can explain To parishes stretched far and wide - To innocents they cast aside. Religious aristocracy, Duplicitous conformity, Accepted this hypocrisy - This predatory blasphemy. Faux piety to hide their shame, Disdaining good and shielding blame; No deft Indulgence could resolve - No...

Premium Member Gay, Pride Before Destruction
Gay, Pride Before Destruction Need Saxon savages in a Godless world? The pagans pervert God's Word, to right their sin. Their judgment is their proud vanity un-furled? Their colors diverge from white; see out, not in? Church leaders whoring God's Word to fill their pews! Their demise is judgment, leaving mercy out! Flare their wings of white and gold; they ignore what's...

Priests and Councillors
The Church has a far greater obligation Than the Priest running a profitable congregation And the Councillor seeking re-election To uplift the communities and build a strong nation The Churches are far more powerful and numerous Than the corruptors who twice a decade ridicule us Procrastinating in the potholes of the road to progress God shouldn’t also be a candidate on a...
