Tongue In Cheek by mlambere

I draw my tongue across my palm
and watch as velvet drips appear
then look back up to the gallery
and see the backs of empty chairs.

I probe and slash in total random
then curl into the velvet sheet
and wash my mouth with caustic soda
then pop my tongue back in my cheek.

I am not sure what point you are trying to reach... 
And what you are talking about... 
This is a bit odd.

Taylor is an sarcastic anti emo cutter poem - young people right meanless drivel about the glory and pain of cutting themselves. This poem is basically saying who care nobodies watching

Hi,

This is the first thing I have read by you but am intrigued to read more! The "I" in the poem is a convincing voice, mainly I think, in how they describe each new masochistic act in almost ritualistic terms - the importance of what they do comes through in their not wishing to leave any one thing out. 
Some nice imagery too, a sense this person relishes what they are doing. Dark and unnerving.
