Well, it means I thought my good points and the good I did and far far outweighed the sins I committed, or the inadequacies I showed. It suggests a self awareness of those \"sins\" and a conscious effort too. But I was judged only on those \"sins\" and the fall is both the disappointment in understanding that and the fact that I \"fell\" consequently from a state or place of grace and love a long way down, in fact back into the pit with my sins suggesting I dwelt on them (as one does analysing failure). The title suggests the tower was build on miscommunication and that is why it was perceived differently.
Something like that.

Thanks. Slightly ironic to write a poem about the powerlessness of words, but sometimes they are unfortunately.

Yeah well, she did that, she is that, she\'ll be sorry, it\'ll be too late. She\'s in the \"forever after\" she made.
That\'s pretty much the story.
Thanks for your comment.
