I liked the format of the poem. The tone is dampened slightly, at the end seems more coarse.
Most powerful lines:

this is a dark view of christianity. The Lamb and the " Mutton" is the lamb of God. The Crown symbolizes the king of kings. I did this purposely. The coarse tone at the end was meant to shake the foundation of the Theolgian reader. I did not expect the average reader to comprehend this. I think you did well
