Essays / My paper is called Originality: A Figment of Our Imagination, I need a little help... [3]

So, I think I have a pretty good intro... but I need help with where I should go from here. My intro:

Students are conditioned to cite sources to avoid plagiarism. They arrive to college with the mindset, "When in doubt, cite", but "Who owns the words?" (Shields). Does citing sources really matter? Plagiarism is defined as taking someone else's words, thoughts, or ideas and using them as your own. In the digital age, we are inundated with information and ideas that help shape our own stories and beliefs. With a limited amount of words in the English language, there are few combinations of words to create without knowing if someone else has already combined them. The need to acknowledge the owner of original thoughts or ideas (citation) is superfluous because thoughts and ideas are recycled and reused from daily observations and encounters.

Now, I have read a few articles and books that support my ideas. My plan was to go through each book or article and show how it supports my ideas. The thing is, I do not know how to transition from the intro to doing this... Is my intro unclear? How should I transition? Please help ASAP.. :)

Poetry / I am... (abstract/concrete/truthful ideas and statements) poem [4]

I think only you can say some of these things that represent yourself.
But for me, I would say:

I am (abstract idea) what no other can understand, an unanswered question.
I am (concrete idea) a young woman eager for the future.
Really I am (truthful statement) fearful for what my life will turn out to be.

Just think about yourself and you will be able to do it. :)
