Every time I seat with his poetry I come upon different realizations.

Somewhat interesting, more for who wrote it rather than what the content is. Its wasn't bad, there were some nice moments, but if it was not Morrison that wrote it I suspect it would;d be long forgotten.

oprindeligt 3 stjerner for the lords, men 4 for the new creatures alene. havde ikke vidst, at the lords var meditative essays om cinematik, og selv da jeg fandt ud af det, kunne jeg ikke se det. men the new creatures, derimod. whew. true detective, coney island, mad max, the vvitch vibes hvis deres omdrejningspunkt havde været rastløse unge på jagt efter sjæl. og så er der den her:

III
Cherry palms
Terrible shores
& more
& many more

This we know
that all are free
in the school-made
text of the unforgiven

deceit smiles
incredible hardships are suffered
by those barely able
to endure

but all will pass
lie down in green grass
& smile, & muse, & gaze
upon her smooth
resemblance
to the mating-Queen
who it seems
is in love
w / the horseman

now, isn't that fragrant
Sir, isn't that knowing
w / a wayward careless
backward glance

July 24, 1968

This is nothing more than a collection of ramblings and descriptions. The poems aren't even titled or marked to indicate where one begins or where one ends.
