This is a poem I wrote for an English class of mine called "Innocence and Ignorance".
Innocence and ignorance runs rampant and free,
Infecting dear brother, sister and me.
The world of horrors and whores is the one I now know,
Life is a production; a façade or show.
Why do we trick and cheat the young people?
We do it, of course, to build up our own steeple.
The men of God, they promise salvation,
As long as we agree to taxation.
Self-assuring lies, they puff out our chest,
Though we cannot stand nude, out in front of the rest.
Man is scared and weak, when left on his own,
He extends a hand, waiting to be led and shown.
We love who we choose, but hate who we're told,
Those who are different, are left out in the cold.
Strings are attached to our head, feet and hands,
We think we'll be led to the promise lands,
The children are young, not knowing what they're told,
They follow along blindly, to do the will of the old.
So there they sit, happy and free,
Pure and untainted, not you or me.
Life is a production; a façade, or show,
Enjoy your ride, but I'll not go.

You let the words mold the poem into a meaningless piece of shit. Try using a diverse vocabulary. Cat in the Hat kicked the shit out this.
Keep up the fabulous work!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ahhhh...

Yup. This is cliche' bullshit, try being more subtle unstead of using obvious 'intro to figuring out how (you think) life works' textbook quotes.
