Summary: read it in one night
Review: morrison's first collection of poetry shows that not only was he a talented musician, but also a first rate poet. divided into two sections, the lords (the first) and the new creatures (the second), some of the greatest lines i've read come from here. the poems in the lords seem to lead into the next one. excellent read. i can't go on enough about this.

Summary: poetic alchemy coupled with intellectual + artistic genius
Review: people are often harsh and overly-critical when it comes to morrison's poetry, but i imagine it is mostly just jealousy that a man even existed who was this manifold, brilliant, internally and externally rich in every sense of that word. his thoughts about civilization are ruthlessly honest, reflect the mind of a man who was never quite at home anywhere and who had a rebellious intelligence and poetic sensitivity that cut like laser beams through collective deceptions and comfortable facades. morrison may never have found a home in life or real peace, but the sheer passion of his work more than compensates for his (sometimes grievous) personal failings and tragic flaws. i would recommend this to everyone, and particularly to young people, in that it might make them look twice before they complacently adjust to a society that is little more than an insane system of dehumanization and commodification.

Summary: A guide into Jim Morrison's psyche
Review: The Lords segment of the book had some good quotations and some very unique and enigmatic images, whereas the New Creatures did not make that much sense, at least read in a normal mindframe. There probably is a deeper meaning behind Jim's LSD/whiskey drenched verses, but in this book, many of his meanings are layered by either weird metaphors or incoherence. At the same time, it's also enigmatic and it makes you wonder what he was thinking or what he was trying to say.

Summary: THE LORDS. THE NEW CREATURES
Review: The only authorized examples of Morrison's poetry were issued in 1969 as private limited editions of only 100 copies each. Later American editions became essential reading, not only for fans of The Doors but for all with an interest in contemporary American verse. The Lords and The New Creatures are an important appendix to the breathtaking music Jim left behind. Great Poetry book done by a great american poet! Fall down.
Strange gods arrive in fast enemy poses.
Their shirts are soft marrying
cloth and hair together.
All along their arms ornaments
conceal veins bluer than blood
pretending welcome.
Soft lizard eyes connect.
Their soft drained insect cries erect
new fear, where fears reign.
The rustling of sex against their skin.
The wind withdraws all sound.
Stamp your witness on the punished ground. Buy this book! I highly recommend it!

Summary: Puerile maunderings of a nearly talentless narcissist
Review: These "poems" are so bad, so puerile, so schlocky, so self-indulgent, that it is no wonder that thousands of disturbed teenagers carry them around clutched to their chests. Morrison speaks for the all the disaffected but talentless millions who ever lived. His thoughts are their thoughts; his pointless word-salads apparently strike deep, thrilling chords of banality in the unthinking. Don't read the book; read the other reviews of it posted here, and you will get the full flavor of the Morrison "mystique."
