When the tables turned!

When the tables turned

sadly it was not

the knights of the round table.

But a similar quest

to the holy grail indeed,

when all is revealed

in the inquisition of yesterday's priests.

Yes, no longer are the followers

to enter the confessional box

to confess, 

but now the priests themselves.

For to flog a priest

is to get to the truth

for all their dreadful sins

sitting in their fields of gold

what lies beneath their cloaks.

But their cowardly lies,

and toxic charm,

and the oath they took

to remain silent.

Who are the heathens now!

Very topical write well expressed. Yes, the tables have turned regarding the confessional box. Hideous behaviour now exposed. Enough to put you off religion, that's if you still think there's a place for it.
