We are seduced by the corrupted,
the maniacal, and the evil individuals into wars that don't make any logical sense of any imagination.

That's why, we the people will always fail.
We have the cognitive temerity in thinking the world really thinks like your-selves.
That's why, we the people will always fail.
We kill
We murder
We maim
We claim
That's why, we the people will always fail.
We have grossly disrespected & degraded the indigenous, the oppressed, while preaching & attempting to teach the world about human rights.
We have the highest incarceration rate (except the Nazis) of any country in the history of the world.
That's why, we the people will always fail.
We openly deny health, education & basic human food & shelter.
There are more revenues in animal shelters than in humans.
There are more revenues in keeping the oppressed, oppressed than in simple education.
That's why, we the people will always fail.

This country & world is has turned & fallen into hell.
That's why, we the people will always fail.

.....put me off from the start. Do you read your poems back to yourself? Aloud? I think you'd have less typos etc and also start to feel rhythm more - which is lacking in your work. Keep writing but try stepping down from the soap box first.

A political/philosophical manifesto, a spoken-word monolouge. Typical in that genre with it's repetition and escalation. And as such, quite good.
But poem? Eh, depends on one's definiton, I guess.
an oration, a diatribe, but not (to my way way of thinking) a poem, so i feel unable to offer my comments on this as a poem.
