Best Predictable Poems
Predictable'Hello Bob', I self-spoke
Inside my head.
That's what I'd say if my name was Bob.
But it's not,
My name is not Bob.
Bob would not wear dare
Nor would Bob dare wear a cloak
With lipstick in the chest pocket
And a memory-tied locket
Swimming in a fancy fruit perfume.
Bob would not...

PredictableWhat were the odds they did not know?
So many, many years ago, according to the records
they had left in there, it seems the answer was, quite low.
How strange the paradox of nature, how unpredictable
the outcome of its selections, how some variations
with the best...

PredictableCrocheting needles waved her fingers from a self-disclosed mind
Texture and pattern set lines like predictive text and autocorrect
Wool over her eyes would know how to stitch up her soul-scape
No matter whether blanket or poncho woollen hat or jacket
The mood flowed straight out of her heart...

PredictableIt was predictable
You would come
And smile
I cleaned the stable
Put a handsome
bouquet of roses
On a table
In the right hand corner
Near the window
Put some white gladioli
Wrapped with
A brown paper too
Lest what is predictable
Didn't come true
It was you who
made it predictable
For you said
Categorically
Whether spring or rain
You would...

The Predictable Old Workday GrindOrgan grinder
Meat grinder
Bump-and-grind
The workday grind
Get up, get out of bed
Drag a comb across my head
Yeah, Yeah, Paul: You knew that was coming --
Go to work
Pour the coffee
Water the plants
...

PredictablePoems are written with great emotion by poets,
right from word one a writer gets lost in the creation, with
expectations for good reviews . . . but is is predictable and
destined that at times some negativity will come floating;
inevitable to hurt the heart,
certain to leave...

A Predictable EndThe lovely thorn bird
in truth so aptly named
death is his destiny born
a tragic ending
impaled on his home of thorns
sad and predictable end......

Predictable RhymesI'm sick to death of predictable rhymes
Such as I should be a drug dealer because I provide dope lines
I love you
It's true
I don't know what to do
Left her on read, now she's feeling blue
I'm tired of it all
I'm trying to raise my pen game to...

PredictableThe older I am
The older I get
Finding myself doing the same
Thing, again and again
Nothing in life
Ever much changes
I'm so predictable
But then you knew I would say this
It all has to do
With my attitude
But then again
This tidbit you knew
I wake in the mornings
Shower and...

PredictablePhase changes.
Rising trends.
Everywhere we see the data.
Down goes dualism.
I can barely breathe as it is.
Chicken shack children catching their colds.
Table your thoughts inside my many hearts.
Analyze the graphs.
Beckon the elders.
Leer into the ascending values.
Everyone changes the outcome....

PredictableIf I say turn left,
he's sure to go right.
If I say let's drop it,
he'll just want to fight.
The few times he asks me
to go out to eat,
he wants the one restaurant
I like the least.
If on a vacation
we chose both to go,
I'd most like a cruise
while...

Predictable?
Poetry in such a way
Restructured from afar
Every thought that's on display
Don’t show them who you are
Instead of just the usual write
Concoct a brand new scheme
Touch the dark instead of light
Abort the standard theme
Become unpredictable
Leave all that stuff behind
Ending this one without love…...

PredictableIn a world where change is inevitable we never see it coming
new and more advanced search engines
hairdos that shock us with color and multi dimensional form
faster cars that run on solar energy
foods syringed with synergetic fibre, may or may not be...
