"cool. now we're on the same page"

No... No, we're not. Someone unknown is talking to someone unknown about things unknown? Who cares?

Suppose the person next to you on the bus said that to you? How would you react? Probably with something like, "What? Who the hell are you?" And for the same reason, that's what you'll get from a reader.

You know what you're talking about, but the reader doesn't. And when that happens they stop reading.

The lousy punctuation, the missing caps, and the text-speak abbreviations, make this look like something you tapped out in five minutes on your phone, then posted without editing.

In any case, it's not a poem, it's an essay broken into short lines. There's no poetic language, no allegorical references, no attempt to make use of prosidy...

Bottom line: They've been writing poetry for thousands of years. No way in hell can you take the nonfiction writing tricks we're given in school and write poetry that works. So do yourself a favor and read a book or two on HOW to write it, because at the moment you are flying blind, and it shows.
