Recvd this big, beautiful book today. I was worried that it would have a lot of material I already have, but this book expands upon the work already released, unedited versions of previously released poems are here, And his is purview is expanded there's so much new here, and it's fascinating! More than makes the case of Morrison being an artist/writer/poet.

An American Prayer. This should put Jim Morrison in the category of poet. An American Prayer is Morrison's Howl! or The Wasteland. & probably as the most important poet of his generation.

Reading through The Lords & The New Creatures section you can forget how well read Morrison was. You can find references to Greek mythology (of course), film theory and the Bible, and not just everyday pedestrian references but not so well known anecdotes. Kind of makes you wonder abt his line from As I Look Back "I rebelled against church, after phases of fervor" doesn't it?
