Premium Member A Paradox Vignette

His music was to cause a riot
As Stravinsky lost the plot,
Beethoven ...it was not-
This rite of Spring
Soon made the critics sing.

Silence

Anger only highlights your weakness, 
it shows your lost the plot. 
Keep yourself calm,  
cool and collective. 
For your silence can say alot.

We Lost the Plot

Eye to eye, 
then more,
then 
lips to thigh,
then nothing,
because we always grow apart,
because there's really nothing there.
We lost the plot.

Ap-Pall-Ing

Four pall bearers with a coffin were not,
in a cemetery able to find their spot.
They walked ‘round and around
all the cemetery ground,
so I’m certain they have lost the plot.

Just Talking Kisses

So..?

Yes what

Have you lost the plot?

No I have not! I am just feeling very hot

So..?

Yes what

Do you fancy a snog???

No I'd rather kiss my dog

Oh thanks a lot!!

Sensing the End

SENSING THE END

I think I’ve given you all I’ve got
Perhaps it’s that I’ve lost the plot
Not something I have seen before
No passion is there anymore
Light in your eyes has dimmed somewhat

Premium Member Rest In Peace

When mirrors crack they shatter all illusions as rainbow’s end quick fixes lie in tatters on the floor.
A plot for every dream and every dreamer engraved with stirring mottos bound  to fade.
For those who lost the plot a final resting ground,
while soul survivors live to bear the scars of unplanned residue.

Time

My time has come to step aside
The time is getting very wide

I lost another tooth today
So time to go again outside

I will fear not
Because I am not

Worried if you lost the plot

As it's easy to forget the words
The ones we already heard

The time is now 
The time is near
The time we all have good cheer

So the time to reflect

What did we actually mean by that...

NEW LEAF

“Don’t leave me,” I begged
“I’ll turn over a new leaf.”
“You said that last time,” she said,
“But the story was just the same on the next page.”
“This time, I’ll start a new chapter, a new book,
One with a happy ending.”
“For whom?” she asked (grammatically)
“For both of us,” I said.
“I’m sorry,” she insisted,
“You’ve lost the plot,”
“Are you saying our story’s over?”
“Yes,” she said, “you’ve been remaindered.”

Premium Member Going To Live Forever

We can of course live through other peoples death,
but not our own,

which also means, we cannot experience anything 
after we die. 

and cannot be aware when we’re dead, 
just like before we’re born

So we always seem alive, from our point of view, 
“we’re immortal by our very own perception”

From my poem  (Lost the plot to find a way)
02/06/2021

The British Working Classes

He wakes very morning
to trudge through his day
a labor of love
or just bills to pay?
it seems that forever
he's been burdened with debt
and retirement a time to reflect
or regret?
She awakes every morning
to labor all day
kids are in day care
there's really no choice
no other way
the bank accounts empty
and pay day seems so far away
I think that this government
has lost the plot
think of the people
who ain't got a lot.

Premium Member How Much Longer

How much longer?
I am waiting to die now
Can’t see a way forward 
Don’t want to look back
I’ve finished thinking how
Had enough failure, and
Can’t cut anymore slack
Can’t see any point, man
Running on a treadmill
And getting nowhere fast
There’s nowhere left to stand
Lost the plot of the future
And I can’t change the past
I want to close my eyes forever
Just can’t see the point!
Just can’t see the point!

I Owe It All To Poetry

for two years i expressed misery in poetry
who knew why and what had ate at me
my depression deep rooted in mystery 
changing who i was most apparently 
then repressed memories started showing me 
mist which hid my history lifted for clarity

because i wrote my feelings down
my head cleared up and knots were not 
it was the hope behind the cloud 
I said with fear I'd lost the plot 

poetry kept me sane
released the pain
cleared up the brain
poetry made me again

The Booster

The booster is in town
trying to keep Omicron down
The governemnet is scared
the coronavirus has reflared

People will get sick
With this guy ever so quick
Are there any doctors and nurses around?
we need all hands on the ground

The UK has lost the plot
And Australia is being lead by clots
Lots of people will die
And many families will cry

But it was all worth it
All that true determination and grit
We saved the economy
surely you don't believe in astrology
