Dicen que los poemas son las ventanas al alma de una persona, y Jim Morrison era especialista en darle a sus fanáticos un pedazo de su vida cada que lanzaba un poema. Su habilidad para la música y el arte lo posicionó como uno de los artistas más importantes durante la década de los 60 ‘s, además de tener una carrera exitosa con su banda ‘The Doors’ por muchos años.
Los años de oro para el cantautor vinieron acompañados del movimiento hippie, y el rock estaba abriendo brecha para toda una nueva generación que buscaba experimentar todo lo que su juventud tenía que ofrecerle, desde consumo de sustancias hasta una ola sexual de autodescubrimiento, fue por esta razón que Morrison vió la oportunidad de compartirle al mundo su poesía.

Newborn Awakening
Gently they stir, gently rise.
The dead are newborn awakening.
With ravaged limbs and wet souls.
Gently they sigh in rapt funeral amazement.
Who called these dead to dance? Was it the young woman learning to play the ghost song on her baby grand?
Was it the wilderness children?
Was it the ghost god himself, stuttering, cheering, chatting blindly?
I called you up to anoint the earth.
I called you to announce sadness falling like burned skin.
I called you to wish you well.
To glory in self like a new monster.
And now I call you to pray.
Freedom Exists
Did you know freedom exists
In school books
Did you know madmen ar
Running our prisons
Within a jail, within a gaol
Within a white free protestant
Maelstrom
We’re perched headlong
On the edge of boredom
We’re reaching for death
On the end of a candle
We’re trying for something
That’s already found u
A Feast Of Friends
Wow, I’m sick of doubt
Live in the light of certain
South
Cruel bindings.
The servants have the power
dog-men and their mean women
pulling poor blankets over
our sailors
(And where were you in our lean hour)
Milking your moustache
or grinding a flower?
I’m sick of dour faces
Staring at me from the TV
Tower, I want roses in
my garden bower; dig?
Royal babies, rubies
must now replace aborted
Strangers in the mud
These mutants, blood-meal
for the plant that’s plowed.
They are waiting to take us into
the severed garden
Do you know how pale and wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour
unannounced, unplanned for
like a scaring over-friendly guest you’ve
brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all
and gives us wings
where we had shoulders
smooth as raven’s
claws
No more money, no more fancy dress
This other kingdom seems by far the best
until it’s other jaw reveals incest
and loose obedience to a vegetable law.
I will not go
Prefer a Feast of Friends
To the Giant Family.
Stoned Immaculate
I’ll tell you this…
No eternal reward will forgive us now.
For wasting the dawn.
Back in those days everything was simpler and more confused.
One summer night, going to the pier.
I ran into two young girls.
The blonde one was called Freedom.
The dark one, Enterprise.
We talked and they told me this story.
Now listen to this..
I’ll tell you about Texas radio and the big beat.
Soft driven, slow and mad.
Like some new language.
Reaching your head with the cold, sudden fury of a divine messenger.
Let me tell you about heartache and the loss of god.
Wandering, wandering in hopless night.
Out here in the perimeter there are no stars.
Out here we is stoned.
Immaculate.
The Movie
The movie will begin in five moments.
The mindless voice announced
all those unseated will await the next show.
We filed slowly, languidly into the hall.
The auditorium was vast and silent
as we seated and were darkened, the voice continued
The program for this evening is not new.
You’ve seen this entertainment through and through.
You’ve seen your birth your life and death
you might recall all of the rest.
Did you have a good world when you died?
Enough to base a movie on?
I’m getting out of here.
Where are you going?
To the other side in the morning.
Please don’t chase the clouds, pagodas.
Her cunt gripped him like a warm, friendly hand.
It’s alright, all your friends are here.
When can I meet them?
After you’ve eaten
I’m not hungry.
Uh, we meant beaten.
Silver stream, silvery scream.
Oooooh, impossible concentration.
