Lets just say I am a really mean reviewer.
Read your poem over and think what things I could pick at.
Do you see?

the last line I think is wasted, as it has been explained in the rest of the poem.
the breasts into an undersized bra, unwilling?
anthropomorphism?

the line pattern would probably make more sense if this poem was about diziness.

you are asking the reader to believe you have no idea 'lightbulb in my head, it seems to be dead'
and then expecting someone to value your poem.
A small point of logic
I like the rhyme gnome and poem, if you really are short as a gnome it is even better.

good, like the sinister turn at the end.
Is the second line not 6 syllables though?

A bit like a pimple poem, schoolboy insecurities.
I gather it is about being in the army, makes you sound a little wimpy.
The verses are redundant as this is a piece of prose.
I could identify with certain of your points though -7-

the last one, I seem to forget what you were supposed to rhyme the last line with.
Other than that good rhythm, and in the spirit of a limerick

a bit of an 'it' poem describing something as it but alluding to rather than building up an image.
The poem would be better with a few images to guide the reader.
Like 'it is stealth and you are dull'

the moral of the story?
I guess that you should not have given away the suit.
If you have no use for a suit ther is precious little point in keeping it even if it does fit well.
That electric chair is damn comfy.
The poem I found flowed well but seemed a little odd.

not sure about the rhyme at the end of each verse, too many words seem to interfere in between, such as whom and you.
overall pleasant,

difficult to read, I think limericks usually have lines 1,2,5, roughly the same beat and long, and lines 2,4 the same beat and short. It could be inversed but this is neither.
As for the story being stupid, limericks kind of are, I have not read many limericks that are on serious issues, I think it is the zip and loudness that lends itself to silliness.

1 is not a haiku, I think it goes 5,6,4 rather than 5-7-5, nevertheless it is snappy and kind of within the spirit of the haiku.
This like most attacks on religion though lacks the detailed analysis required for insight.
To me religion is like Dark Angel:
the non-believers know it to be bullshit, but it seems protected by its web of paradoxes and contradictions.

It isn't really much of a poem, but it is a well structured story (providing it is going anywhere)

well carried, nice rhythm, a little prosaic.

'you fingered out the route'? a bit graphic perhaps
yes I get this, you are boring your kid with details you think important, and he trying to emulate you replies with details you find irrelevant, therefore reflecting on yourself.
could do with a little more lively poetic original language though
oh yeh and the relevance of perception is it stops you walking into walls
