Short Morrison Poems

In adolescence he created 
the myth

That untamed
—devoured him

The Past

The Past is like a ribbon
Holding up your hair
You turn around to find it
But it's not there.

Purely soul to soul,

                            Infatuation for him,

                             Dejection eats up !

The color orange
Strikes the whole sky with brightness
Increasing splendor
It has an awesome power
Fills me with thunderous awe

Australians all let us raise our voice
For we were young and free
This makes my blood boil on my own soil
Our home is encircled by airlines 
Our land abounds with political gits
Of no beauty, or rarity
In history's page let every stage
Advance Australia unfair....

In a black motorcade
the sad and soft parade
heavy hearts the last charade
the last act is finally played
one more curtain call is made
rest in peace shadow and shade
final farewell finish and fade

A tribute to Jim Morrison...

Jim Morrison,
How sore the drugs made him,
Kurt Cobain,
Passed at the hands of the vain,
John Lennon,
Met insanity’s venom,
Heath Ledger,
His daughter, he left her,
Brandon Lee,
Met his father’s fate,
I haven’t realized to this date,
Why awe-inspiring people,
Seem to pass when-
We least expect it....

A poet and songster short lived with
powerful visions brought out
In lyrics styled with music
that tells of wisdom surpassing
his time of life and death 
by drugs and alcohol his escape
short life but bright spirituality
engaged his talent with rage
delivering his mind to end
Jim Morrison and the Doors...

Respect to you Sir

I absolutely love your work

So much so i even took the
time to look you up and
google you

And all because i seen you
on the Nationwide T.V advert

And my mum even noticed
and thought you we're good too

And that is saying something
and a massive compliment...

Last night I had a funny dream,
It really made me laugh;
I dreamt I was a fly on the wall
As Jim Morrison had a bath!
I heard him sing his famous songs
That went to number one,
But when the bubbles in his bath dissolved
Was when I had great fun!
With all the myths that surround this star.
I can only say one thing,
With no bubbles left, I could tell,
Why he was called  "The Lizard King!"...

He was a boxer and his name was Tommy Morrison.
He starred in Rocky V as Tommy Gunn.
He died last year at the age of forty-four.
It's sad because he's not alive anymore.
He won forty-nine of his fifty-two fights.
He always punched out his opponents lights.
Morrison's boxing career ended in 2008.
Now he's dead and it's what many hate.

(Dedicated to Tommy Morrison who died on September 1, 2013.)...

Zora Neal saw that Their Eyes Were Watching God, when
Toni Morrison heard The Song of Solomon, and
James Baldwin Told It on the Mountain, while
W.E.B. DuBois embraced The Souls of Black Folks
Richard Wright was a Black Boy, that’s why
Dr. Maya Angelo Knew Why the Caged Bird Sang
Iyana Vanzant found Peace Within Pieces, when
Lorraine Hansberry ate a Raisin in the Sun, while
Terry McMillian was Waiting to Exhale...

She is a defined woman
short blond hair
gives my thoughts wild abandonment
my feelings juxtaposed
into new understanding of her
she is all woman
her body
cinched at the waist
defining the upper and the lower completely
eyes which seem to foretell
things evermore
a defined woman
psychedelic sixties posters
on her wall
I sit in my room waiting . . . until . . .
reincarnation complete
Jim Morrison picks up the phone
She hears her phone ring...

Riders on the storm
Left us too soon
Where have they gone
Oh just one more song

Jim Morrison
Jimi Hendrix
Amy Winehouse

Riders in the storm
Changed our lives
Showed us a different light
Once shining so bright

Marvin Gaye
Janis Joplin
John Lennon

Riders on the storm
Once so strong
Took us to
The other side

Whitney Houston
Tupak Shakur
Kurt Cobain

Riders on the Storm
Burning candles at both ends
The flame has died
Oh just one more song...

Homage to Poetry (Formerly PoET a Tree)
By Brett Somers
3/19/16

Poetry is everywhere
It’s in our hearts
It’s in our minds
It’s the purest expression 
Of human kind
It’s the breath
Of our inner creation
A touch of the divine
As they sing the lines
Of Dylan, Morrison, Kendrick Lamar
To the base of their idling car
They may say poetry ain’t cool
Wiser – They know
For poetry at times
Is an abstract old fool

"I'm sorry for burying my face in your lap Janis Joplin."
Joplin's reply, "Water under the bridge Jim Morrison."
This is an apology that occured in Rock n Roll heaven.
Jim Morrison did in fact
in a drunken stuper so did collapse
and bury his face in Janis Joplin's lap.
Joplin was shocked and knocked him further unconscious
over his head with her bottle of Southern Comfort,
but I imagine that these two Rock n Roll legends
have patched things up and are now heavenly friends again....

Christopher Columbus
headed east, but instead
went west they said.

His nautical goal was 
circumnavigation,
but North America
stomped that dream dead.

to fan his flame.

His new handle, John Wayne
