"It's" is a contraction. A contraction is when a new word is formed from two or more separate words. In English, an apostrophe is used to acknowledge the missing letters. "Don't" is a contraction of "do not," and "shouldn't" is a contraction of "should not." "It's" is short for "it is," or less frequently, for "it has."
vs.
"Its" is a possessive pronoun, meaning "belonging to it." The confusion arises because if you don't substitute the pronoun "it" for the noun, an apostrophe is used. For example, the bone belonging to the dog is "the dog's bone." The eraser on the pencil is "the pencil's eraser." Both examples use an apostrophe plus an "s" in order to attribute ownership.

'Popcorn' is spelled right in the title, but not in the first line.

ahh see you just fell onto the grenade that is "help me but dont tell me i am wrong"
your poem is good.i would suggest entering it into the Minutiae competition in the competition forum.

before you do that just go over all the 'its' and change them to *it's* as suggested by aglitch,since she did go to a lot of trouble explaining why. :)
