Fake

Fake

A Poem by The dark Hydra

Bow for the blow
bow to the ax
bow your head in sleep.
Go to sleep and never wake from this toxic world that's all too fake.
Something,something strange brewing in the darkness. Are you ready for the change?
Freaks that shreek  in this black and white world that's all too bleak.
I name you fake
hiding behind a pretty face.
A mask of darkness brewing behind those eyes.
Covered by a mask, some makeup and your lies. 
Who are you when i strip away your face?
A mock, a clown, or a mimic in a dangerous place.
Feast on the pain. Feast on the sorrow.
Feast  on the poor mans riches and you'll end up swimming with the fishes. 
As night drapes it's cool dark capes.
Out comes the full moons glare. 
Out comes the werewolf hidden beyond your stair.

Prefered this one. More context and point to this one. Good detail, interesting and heartfelt. Bravo on this one. See you if you took it seriously instead of taking the piss you would shine.

There's definitely power behind this. It's got intensity that's driven home by the last line. Though I think you mean “stare” not “stair”. Also “shriek” not “shreek”.
Though in my opinion some of it's power gets loss in the over usage of a few words like the double usage of “fake” and “face”. Also if your going to repeat “behind” in those two lines, I suggest making it more intentionally parallel. Like with “bow” in the first three lines.
The last three lines crown this perfectly, and your choice of format I think is interesting and effective.
