I

When the world freezes over,
The soft glow of the computer screens will leak against a sky-black universe
When everything goes on without us,
Stop-lights and streetlamps will light the way
For all the people who don’t look there
The beast in the pit
When the stores will always be empty,
Vegas will ****** no one with her lights,
A blinding light

II

Green-glow and blue-shine will cry out
From their boxes in vain, to
The glowing black-blue swirl of
Cosmic magnificence!
Humanity’s ancient projections will whimper and beg
The interstellar paradise ingentis so unexplored
For desperate affection and faces,
        drooling.

III

When the bottom falls off…
When the bell tolls for thee…
When the plug comes out from the wall….
You will not look,
You will stare.
Eyelids - hanging like abandoned bridges
Skin - blue with the afterglow still clinging to what it caught.
Sweating through your bottom
Until you expire, and – then, we will cower away from the great
For thine…

I didn’t just meet you
I’ve known you for a while
I’d like to know you’re a live
And well and still a child

Don’t turn into a ghost
Or an old photograph tucked away
Deeper in the attic
Or  is it deeper in my brain

When a tree falls and no one is around there is no sound
But

You’re an explosion
You float you crazy song you
Puzzle that I never solved
Don’t finish.
You are the stop to where I begin
And
I can only hope.
Thompson George Feb 2013
No better day than today.
Pick up and leave.
Do what you wanted to
Yesterday
And the day before
Ever since you could remember thinking about it
You were thinking about doing it
What’s stopping you?
What’s holding you back?
Smash lies, drown guilt itself, **** damnation, fly high, and
Never
Look
Back.
This is your life.
It’s yours and no one else’s
To make
And mold
And have
And hold
And love
And find
Wherever it may take you
Let it comfort you
And “never look back”, I said!
Don’t look down
And for the record
And for God’s sake
Godspeed to you, brothers and sisters!
Seize what is yours!
Deliver your dreams, conquer your fears, and
Be a champion of chivalry
A king of kindness
A giant of joy
And above all
Make this place
Make this time
Make this one
Count.

In the broken hearts of yesteryear,
It was rushes of color, hue, and screams.
You hear the sounds you heard; you’re doing it once again.
“For you,
I’d wait.”
Do you remember that?  Do you remember that rotten smile?
I do,
Dear.
I do.
On mountains of dead dreams,
That’s where we are in the atmosphere
I heard the words you said; we’re dying slowly from here.
“Hey,
Remember me?”
I’m on the other end of the valley of Death.
We are,
Dear.
We are.

Take a seat and think
Do you want to be free?
Do you want to freak out
With me?

Take a seat and think
Would you let your thoughts run?
Do you want to watch the sun
Flap its wings?

Where your mind goes to think, or
Where a beggar goes to drink
Let’s go there once and for all
When time moves in waves
And we talk like we’re slaves
Let’s go there once and for all

I contemplate scents
AND CRAWL UP THE WALLS
I never buy, I only rent
This piece in the think-halls,
Is mine for now and I’m fine with that.

Yeah,
I’m fine with that.
Yeah,
I'm ****** up.
Thompson George Mar 2013
My day starts with shaking pockets.

Don’t you know?
There are bills to pay
And things to say
So let’s go, go, go.

This way, that way, and the freeway
In the morning, night, and midday
There’s a smile waiting for us
By the cloud of the back of the bus

Sometimes it’s a little bit
Sometimes it’s a lot
You never know when it
Can get you caught

No care, no worry for me, though!
Work it on out, baby
I use this kind of dough
to take over the day - see?

I feel like I can live here forever
I am content and fine
For now I don’t remember
How I fell apart because of “thine”

I’m your man,
That’s right,
Here I am,
Now it’s alright.
this one's about selling a harmless plant in secret

we went to see the World.
we saw screaming children, and weeping mothers
dying fathers, angry sons, and devastated brothers
we heard radio transmissions.
we heard codes.
we played games and we smoked and then we came Home.
and now,
                   how,
how am I not Dreaming?
Thompson George Feb 2013
It’s the time to call me  out
To the top of the world
Where I can see
These
All these people!
Here they are lisetening to every word I have to give
With open mouths and empty stomachs,
They let me ****** my sould down their mouths,
Down their throats, through their stomachs,
And into their souls.
So that they know me
So that there shall be no more failure to see eye to eye
You and I will both have a full grasp
A full knowledge
And wisdom
To one another
From one man to the next!
It pains me! I want this so, I must have this joining of souls!
These are painful words
Don’t get me wrong,
I must leave before I fall, for there are many more to be had here on this earth,
So long, so many, so much, so
What?
Thompson George Mar 2013
my ******* life
youre ******* right
this ball and that line and that bottle
get me right,
right,
right?
Thompson George Feb 2013
Let me look out ;    and wonder  -  what it is that may find my essence here
To look me in
The
    Face      and, (freely)
Smile.  Let
Our your become the us in the entirety
Please, listen to what I say.
I want more than what the whole could wish for in my lifetime and more.
Take.
Me.
Away. To the end of the travels, and to
The
End.

Where we will and we shall forever into the
Sun into the suns forever.
What do you make of it?  Shall Cupid turn the coldest of shoulders unto my will,
Or
Will you be struck by the bow that must,
It must or I shall die
Do not go far
Do not go away
Until the night befalls and day refuses the Stage Of Life
Let you be with me
In and around and with
With
Two bodies, one flesh
Two minds, one chemistry
Two different things, but they’re still the same
Us
Forever
And the other one, too.
Thompson George Feb 2013
I’m not the only one.
when I’m alone I sleep
Dreams of fake families and shiny diamonds in another state.
If I told you something I didn’t want to know,
Don’t go.  Beat beat beat against the seat in front of you, and watch yourself jump around in your head.
Around in your head, and around and around and a
Round.
Red walls, warm eyes, full-circuit freedom, you’re welcome.
Its so easy.
As soon as you know, there it is.  At the end of the day.
It’s there.  Soothe and prove to you where I am.
That’s all, sir,  that’s all mam.
That’s all.
That’s
All , miss.
That’s that.
That’s what I thought you would be in here.
a bunch of thought sensatios, people.

— The End —
