Download or read book The Original Published Poetry of Jim Morrison written by Jim Morrison and published by Omnibus Press& Schirmer Trade Books. This book was released on 1985 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Morrison was one of the most erudite and widely read of all rock stars, whatever demons inhabited his anguished soul. The name of his group The Doors was inspired by the writings of William Blake and Aldous Huxley, and the lyrics he wrote and sang bear witness to his fertile gift for rich, mysterious imagery. Much of this was overlooked amid the colourful, controversial and decadent life that Morrison chose to lead.
