If it's the latter, I think you need to put some quotation marks around it.Overall, I think you have a nice start here, and I look forward to seeing where you take this poem from here.
and
Her sketches reminded me of Rorschach Tests
I was entranced and a little hornswoggled -Is the font change here intentional?
Mainly self-inflicted
but
hopelessly mind boggled.
Emotions bottled up, things bottomed out -"Emotions bottled up" isn't quite a cliche, but it's close. I would suggest saying it differently.
This expression thing. What’s it about?
So
my own cacophonies, I screeched
Finger paintings, I bleached -I like the images in this and the previous line. I would suggest expanding on them because I would be interested in seeing where you would end up.
Still
I’m in other ways frustrated
with what I have created.
Keep writing,
Richard
Time is the best editor.
