 He has eyes the size of windmills with an appetite exceeding that of No Face from Spirited Away;-- if you mention any woman to him, instantly he falls in love with her, and envies you for even breathing her name, white-knighting her from your attention even though his body count is in the hundreds now, & he thinks he’s a rock-star because he looks the part so everybody tells him so even though he can’t sing or play an instrument, besides just mindless noise; I wrote a song with him, & although it’s pretty good, when we started another, he called the whole thing off, insisting it was too much like every other song; then, he wrote a song that was simply the first three chords I had written in our first song. He called this his song. G.M.H. Thompson has been published in a number of poetry publications no one has read because nowadays, no one reads poetry. In 2018, Spartan Press published G.M.H. Thompson's first collection, Yard Sale at the Devil's Petting Zoo. In 2020, G.M.H. Thompson was nominated for a Pushcart but didn't win it. In 2023, G.M.H. Thompson put a second collection entitled Quetzalcoatl out on Amazon. Certain editors seem to like some of G.M.H. Thompson's poems while other editors don't really seem to at all. The modern poetic world is a strange jungle of ego and madness.
