Thank you for your kind and thoughtful feedback, Cody Phoenix
Thank you for your kind and honest feedback, Bilbo You've articulated something that I hadn't, quite, though it's concerned me: I never described the woman. And she is a woman, not a church or a symbol for anything like that. She's Pugin's (the 19th-century architect) dream because she represents a resurgance of Christian beauty, like a human reflection of the Gothic revival, not because loads of clergymen have been inside her
I like your note about the X-men
Pugin meets Sue Storm... "You", by the way, is God, who the poem is addressed to. Thanks again for your feedback!
