Great poem. I love the message becuase it's so true. I know people who stereotypize (does that word exist?) like that ... Somehow, this poem has touched me deeply, it expresses so well the desperation of cutters, their own unhappiness with the situation, and of course the wish to be understood and taken seriously. I especially love the second-last stanza, I nearly cried when i read that. The whole poem reminded me of someone I know ... I think a lot of people should read this, especially those who do not understand.

I quite liked some of this, although bits of it seemed a bit jarring - for example the double use of the word 'brethren.' The first time it was good, especially combined with the word 'boorish' a few lines later, but the second time you used it I was just reminded of vampires. Which is a terrible goth stereotype, lol.
Other than that, nasty topic. I've been that suicidal (although admittedly not that dour about it) and it's not a good place to be.

I really like this poem. I know what your talking about. I feel along the same lines as you are.
*Review for me and I'll review for you: )

Cool. I love all the questions. It makes you feel like your in intarigation. Awsome. It also proves your point. I like how you describe things its awsome like 'razor has bit your skin' its awsome. Nice job.

Too much repitition in some areas, consider finding a different word or combining a few lines instead of using the same one three times in a row. I would also removed the 'but' on the "What do you know?" line. I feel the line sounds much better without it. Other than that pretty good.
