I didn't read it back in '03, but this edit is intense. I'd take the parens away from "mine" and the "a" from "ferocity," otherwise great.

A tender expression of love. The king James English is a nice touch, but several places, I believe the grammar is wrong.
Line 1 - "doth" is spelled "doeth", but should be "do" in the plural, or just leave it out. Other lines similar.
"shalt" should be "shall" after an I.
"surely thou doth knowest" -> surely thou knowest
"inspiring my soul to happily moan" - good line.

A lot of vague attempts at imagery here that are not developed. Some seem there only for rhyme and rhythm. The cadance is good, but I miss finding any strong point to it all.

"Her charming come-hithers" is good. The rest so-so.

Please don't call this a sonnet. Thank you, I feel better now.
The first half is a nice little sermon on using small hurts to our advantage. Some will say that all preaching in poetry is bad. "Show, don't tell," they chant endlessly. But I like your little sermon. Then you get weird with the lukewarm thing, as if you might be bringing Scripture into it. And when God talks, well, it seems like a another way of saying to use hurts to our advantage.

lol. It's not clear whether you're serious or poking fun, and that makes it a good poem.
I don't think you should call it Concrete.

A lot of these lines are just silly, but "Never believe anyone who doubts your trust" makes sense.

The first nine lines are good, but need some trimming. The rest is downhill.

Your switch to the first person in the last line is distracting. Otherwise vivid.
