I like the simplicity of this poem too. If you want to, try cutting out lines that repeat what you have already said. In poetry less is more. You could try leaving out These people wish to/Have nothing like this/In their body Why? Because the first three lines don't need explaining. They are so much more powerful without that. (I say this as an arch-explainer! and because I like what you have to say.)
