I've never used OpenGL from Haskell, but it sounds like renderString is modifying your modelview matrix with each call, presumably to make it easier to chain lots of text together in one frame. Since the matrix never gets reset, the translation effect accumulates each time the scene is redrawn. The quick fix would be to call loadIdentity (i.e. glLoadIdentity) each time you update, before drawing anything.
