"slightly disappointing" doesn't match the description that follows. Other sloppy lines show that this is merely a first draft, not ready for posting.

The trouble is that it is not explicit.

An interesting scenario of possible outcomes. The ending seems wrong though, because some traces of humanity would doubtless remain. And immortality having a time limit is just mis-worded.

Nice.
"revelling in it" -> "reveling"

Thank you, rockmage, for your timely and predictable response. By the way, did you read the poem?

I can't say that I have. I'm going to assume you have, though, and give this an 8.

<< sensible, respectful, fun >>
I can imagine why you add this (can I? I'm a man), but I wished you had kept it out. Or at least express the unique line of womanhood in a less explicit way.
The way these (those) two people are presented is quite strong, I like the way their closeness is described.
A wife's breast as an inspiration for an architect; wonderful.
Five sentences beginning with 'and'. Too much? It gives the poem a cadenza that isn't unpleasant. Almost like a slow waltz.
The last line with the question mark: so-so
Yes, I like this one.

So, what happened? I leave for a while and Rockmage comes back filled with old hippie hatred for everything and plasters everyone with zeroes? I'm a little confused.

I don't know that this is a concrete...I'm a fan of repetition to some extend but I think it's too much here. Try the "deep dark eyes part mybe every third or fourth stanza...

Expound on the "saints" in line 9...maybe you already have...perhaps I crept ahead too quickly? Still compelling enough for a second read. 8.9
