I wrote this last year for a Poetry Slam at my school, and thought I'd get some reviews on it! What do you think?

Lights go out
it's time to start
I look at you,
a work of art.

Perfect smile
flawless skin,
translucent strings
to move your chin.

Do you dance,
sing your song.
The crowd is there,
to cheer you on.

Now move a little,
more towards me.
You say your lines,
so perfectly.

One more trick,
the crowd applauds.
Turn to them,
and give a nod.

Curtains fall
I take a swallow,
You're still cold,
and fake, and hollow.

You're nothing more
than a wooden doll.
No feelings, sense,
or love at all.

The best puppet I've ever seen.
I only wish I could cut your strings.

It's all graphics. Even the strings. The poetry is awesome. A technique to add to your arsenal. The only way that I could affect your writing is if I judged it. All I can say is to keep it, do not abort it. It is your baby alone. Nothing to be ashamed of. You haven't hurt anyone, that you know of anyway.
