Jim Morrison a true poet.
His voice can stop me in my tracks. His unique look gives me shivers. His music can not be copied. He has his own style. He could make you move. Make you want to dance. Alot of his songs have and odd honesty that you cant shake off. He wrote things about the thing you do and feel without even realizing that you do. Was his style due to drugs and alcohol? Did his actions occur becase he was on a halucigenic or drunk? I think mostly so. But I beleive he was a born Poet, and that perhaps the drugs and such helped him with his different view and uniqueness.
