I am a sculptor
with quick and helpful hands

shaping my poetry (slowly)
to what I want it to
look like

sculpting my mind
onto paper
pushing around my dreams
until they fit in order,
the perfect shape.

I think when you wrote "shaping my poetry (slowly)
to what I want it to
look like"

Having the "look like" on another line is incredibly tacky. It stops the reader in their tracks and makes them spew. But putting it in the line above gives it a great sense of dictation and dicipline.

Otherwise, its fantastic, and I really reccomend you keep going.

The diction fits well with what youre talking about, however the words you used to say them with were not the best, in my opinion. Maybe an extended metaphor would be better here.
