They say practice makes perfect,
That may be,
But do you really want to be,
So predictable and exta-ordinary,
Imagine what that will do to your dreams,
Your dreams that are so imperfect,
It sounds like a nightmare to me,
Some of life is being you,
Not knowing what you'll do next,
Just like every flower is different from the last,
Being perfect is when all your hopes are gone,
Its when,
You are,
What everyone thinks,
Perfect may be!

First thing I noticed, aren't predictable and extraordinary opposites? It doesn't seem like they fit together on that line. I like the idea of this poem, the theme and all, but I think you could have done more. Give us some more emotion and feeling and thought. Also, I'm confused, are you saying perfection is good or bad? Anyway, this is good, but it could use some more details and imagery. Hope I've been helpful, good job. :)

Your poem was very interesting to read, mostly because most people wish to be perfect but you put it in a way that made being perfect seem so unnecessary. I'm not quite sure if that is what would happen if someone was perfect though. I think you could have used stronger words and you could have been more descriptive by chooseing better words but other then that I think your poem was very good!
