Well, it's better to upload a replay in which you lost, but I'll take a look at it~
As I'm watching:
-Don't do extractor trick when you pool before overlord (I wouldn't really do it at all)
-Put 3 drones on gas, not 2
-Hotkey your hatchery and keep producing while microing
-Don't leave drones idle, especially early game
-I wouldn't 12 expo after 9pool, it's very dangerous, oftentimes you need to use sunkens in mineral line to defend yourself from the protoss counter attack
-It's better to either attack the pylon or the probes, don't attack the gateway like that
-Don't retreat 5 lings from 1 zealot unless he brings his probes out
-Again, you put 2 drones on gas instead of 3, you aren't getting as much gas as you could this way
-Don't start getting gas again so fast anyways though, if you fast expo after 9pool, then you make a 3rd hat usually
-When you have speedlings in a toss base that doesn't have cannons, never stop harassing, they run much faster than zealots so just attack & kill a probe then run away when the zealots come, then loop around and attack a building and so forth :P
-Don't keep expoing like that, build more drones and tech up, your first expo is almost useless because you only have 1 drone there; you can just leave the 10 lings harassing while you power/tech, no need to keep producing them
-Stop producing zerglings !! You need to focus on your economy or when he fends them off you'll be paying dearly
-Why are you mining gas if you aren't using it??? Build a lair or a hydra den
-Why did you build a lair if you aren't going to use it?
-You need better macro, having 500 minerals with the few drones that you have is not good
-Don't retreat your hydra when they outnumber the goons 2 to 1
-Keep producing!! You have almost 1000 minerals !!
-Why didn't you research overlord speed ?? You were doing nothing with your lair at all
-Overall you need better micro/macro especially macro, and you need to not do useless things like building a lair and not using it and mining gas but not using it

9 pool, 9 extractor, drone, cancel, 10 ovie, 10 hatch on 300 minerals, then make zergling one at a time as money permits is by far the best zerg opening on bloodbath, unless he is toss and gated earlier than 9 or is a zerg who pooled earlier than 9, then you make 6 ling first, hatch, then make the 8th ling.

This allows you to have 9 drones harvesting, and a 2nd hatch morphing.

But this isn't blood bath, so the only reason you would 9pool is to do severe economic damage/harassment and/or fast tech. It would be silly to 9pool 10hatch on Lost Temple :P
