Provoke Poems - Poems about Provoke

Walk softly Ode to my walking stick

Loyal companion carved from a sturdy oak.
This eternal gratitude will never be revoked.
You've been there for me more then
some human folk.
I think I may be in love with you and that is no joke.
Please stay by my side until the day I croak,
if perchance we come upon a very nasty bloke,
I will turn you upside

Then do not provoke me

It's not hard for me to do the dishes at all.
It's not hard for me to bring the trash out at all.
It's not hard for me to scrub the floor at all.
It's friday.
I don't do anything at all, so.

You call my name, so I close my phone after receiving a response: ,,Why are you always

Poke Than Provoke and Broke

Would Poke Than Provoke Until Broke

had heard when they poke
potential was to provoke
would do until broke

we read about Jobe
was wild when he wore a robe
earing in each lobe
(in room had a globe)

had been cynical
when war was political
am hysterical

often obsequious
he had been called hibiscus
presumed promiscuous

would wear uniform
which always did keep him warm
protect in a storm

Provoke Me

Hell has no fury,
        Compared to me.
       If you hurt my kids.

       If you craving for hell,
           Provoke me.
      You will

Ill-Will of Lies

Palpitating breath of Greed
Masks the Voice of Conscience
When one seeks to be redeemed 
Unveils what was tucked away

Hidden until required
Unmasked something different 
Once neglected hastily 
Loses conscience itself 

Loathes being Provoked 
Returns at a great price 
Tragedy of what it was masked over
Feeds on the ill-will of lies

What Jokes Provoke

A joke or two
     sets the mood
   Is something wrong
     with the food

   Make light of it
     if you must
   Remember that
     in Mom I trust

Provoke Joke That We Were Broke

Provoke Joke That We Were Broke

others did provoke
and have become a big joke
they would end up broke

hard times in making
each breath we have been taking
while hearts are breaking

how bad we all feel
did discover dirty deal
poor so had to steel

God had told us so
with support spirit will grow
party in church throw

could be a client
who on God

When the President Provoke the Youth

when the President provoke the youth
my president said the youths
are lazy 
my president said we the youth 
just sit around waiting for 
benefit 
of wish I never had not even 
for once 
my president said we are 
not educated
I wonder whose fault 
was that 
this man has provoked
the country 
our President has 
abused our dignity

Evoke Versus Invoke and Provoke

Evoke Versus Invoke and Provoke

Sometimes we will on occasion invoke
With the final result being to evoke
Going against grain;
And being a big pain;
If opposed a person this will provoke.

Provoke Not Your Children To Anger

Do not with children 
a contest of wills make-
for this only provokes
them to anger and is a mistake.

you might prevail
for the moment but
you cannot win, it will just
keep happening time and again.

Instead of contention 
firm instruction is best-
provide an acceptable 
alternative and avoid the test.

Give them a substitute
to claim as their own- 
we can not

Why Do You Provoke?

Tiny chances of slender hopes, that broke.
On your lies i can only pray, you choke.
Not ever was a single word, misspoke.
Scattered tattered moral beliefs, a joke.

But buoyant dreams that fill my head, are stoked.
