Dunno really, depends when someone asks me about it?
Grammatical sniping aside, it's a sonnet obviously, but the rhyme scheme is non-standard, and at first blush it seems to me that the first 8 lines deal mostly with the corporeal, and the final 6 are devoted more to the spiritual and mental.
The website I found the text of the poem also has some crit you might want to check out too, look at the source.

The poem is a sonnet.(14 lines of iambic pentameter, divided into an octave and sestet),
it takes after the shakespearean aspect of ababcdcd.
The octave is the first eight lines and the sestet is the last five.
It talks about spirituality.

I would say that you need to pay more attention in your lesson at school, young man/ woman.
