Can someone help me with the iambic pentameter in my sonnet?

It is supposed to be about the book Animal Farm by George Orwell. Please help me with the iambic pentameter, and possibly give me some feedback on how to improve? I pretty much had no idea what I was doing...


Man is nothing but an evil being
Enslaving and our liberty stealing
But easy now, we shall not be fleeing
Instead we must embrace this fine feeling

In time Rebellion is ought to follow
This tyrant of ours must be overthrown
Comrades, this is much for you to swallow
Remember we are not alone

In a sense of greed
They took upon themselves the load to rule
Thus Napoleon taught himself to read
Seems as though not only man is cruel

Such lies been told by this fellow freak
Now starting to sound a lot like Newspeak
