I rip all of my emotions
From the abysmal depths
Of my empty, hollowed chest.
Dripping with feelings and thoughts,
They’re packaged and sold
For the pleasure and amusement,
Of society’s unsatiable desires.

So far, I like it and think you are doing well. The word should be insatiable not unsatiable. Good work. Be sure to repost it in its completeness so we can read it.
Smiles,

I rip all of my emotions
From the abysmal depths
Of my empty, hollowed chest.
OK. Empty and hollowed are just about the same thing. Use another descriptor that shows something different about the way that you feel about your 'abysmal depths'. Perhaps by using some kind of temperature, you can further this notion.
Dripping with feelings and thoughts,
They’re packaged and sold
Hmn. This is quite nonsensical, since 'feelings' mean the same things as 'emotions'. Emotions dripping with feelings? No chance. Try making the emotions more specific, relating them to dripping, like sadness, which is ultimately related to 'emptiness' in this poem. Anyway - you couldn't really say that your experience of happiness created a vacuum within yourself, could you? Could anyone?
For the pleasure and amusement,
Of society’s unsatiable desires.
Right. For the more academic english students at your school, they may well find this ironic, since the poem itself is a parody of poetry, and doesn't really make any sense to begin with. I expect its too generic an idea for a school pupil to contend with, and you really need a specific idea to work out concrete metaphors and imagery in order to make yourself (and your poem) vivid and memorable onstage.
I've been on stage, performed in front of people - trust me, If you can be remembered for nothing else than what you really wanted to say, then you will have succeeded.
Anything else is misery.
