Dead Poets Society



POWER
Jim Morrison 1943-1971


I can make earth stop in
it's tracks. I made the
blue cars go away.

I can make myself invisible or small.
I can become gigantic & reach the
farthest things. I can change
the course of nature.
I can place myself anywhere in
space or time.
I can summon the dead.
I can perceive events on other worlds,
in my deepest inner mind,
& in the minds of others.

I can

I am

  2. Hi Lisa Fee,

    I think it is about things we can do in our dreams. That's the thing about poetry, we all get something different out of it.

    Of course, maybe he thought he was God.

  3. Very cool poem! I saw Jim Morrison's grave when I visited Paris, years ago.

  4. Hi Little Gothic Horrors, I am so jealous. My sister has seen his grave in Paris as well. At least I was born in the hospital that the fabulous Jim Morrison was born in.
