You've done well. My suggestion is that breaks in poetry give readers ability to pause and soak up your meaning. "Water me down" is a good title (a delicious cake) that should stand out and give us something to think about. What do you want us to take away or remember from this lovely piece in the making?
It's like I swallowed down a delicious cake whole all at once without stopping to taste it. The title "water me down" is like the sugar that gives it taste, but is hard to describe bc the tastebuds didn't get an opportunity taste or meditate on it. Keep writing.

I really like this. Great rhythm and rhyme, up to the last third.

Just imo, it seems to loose the impetus after 'put a pencil in my mouth'.
I think if you made a break before it, to make the reader pause, and also one after 'cut news clippings', the new rhythm and rhyme schemes would be more quickly adjusted to

Just to my ear, also, it reads better if you give the word 'pressure' its own line:
'rock the boat
paper rock scissors
pressure
on the throat...'

I think the last line not only works, it makes the poem,

nice to meet you
love judy

This made my heart bleed.
It took me unwillingly to the mental ward where a friend of mine was incarcerated recently.

As Judy said, that last line is a stroke of brilliance.
