The Doors of Perception

Pen drawing of Jim

‘If the Doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it truly is, infinite.’ – part of a poem of William Blake.

In the lovely biography of Jim Morrison ‘No one here gets out alive’, I read that Jim wanted to open our eyes, being transcendent for the crowd, so he created the Doors…

Let him be an example and inspiration, to the people in America, to all of us, to me.

 

To quote Jim:

“there was preserved

In her

The fresh miracle

Of

Surprise”
