I like this too. Perhaps you could take out the period after 'You ' since you are actually making a statement - subject and verb - and lengthen the final 'You' with a dash - or smash it with an exclamation. Or not.

Punctuation is the pits in page poetry. If unsure - leave it out entirely and let the reader be creative. No steering of ideas is probably better than iffy directions.

I enjoyed this. The disjointedness does not take away from the imagery. Another interesting thing is it reminds me of one of those word association tests.
