Not bad…but your third lines should be participle (-ing verbs), so the first poem’s third line should be “hating, discriminating, afllicting”…the same holds true for line 5. Your third poem does it correctly for lines 3 and 5, but fails to use nouns for line 4. Your words are well chosen…just go back and make them comply with the rules:
1 noun
2 Adjectives
3 Participles (-ing verbs)
4 Nouns
3 Participles (-ing verbs)
2 Adjectives
1 noun
You’re on the right track…just a little editing required, that’s all.
…keep writing
