one more time how much I loathe Jim Morrison, his poetry, and the Doors in general?

In fact, how many rock stars are also good poets? Patti Smith, I guess. I don’t think of Leonard Cohen as a “rock” star, so he doesn’t count. I like Dylan, but I never got into more than a smidgen of his non-musical output.

Who else?

Brickbats awaited. Begin.

ETA, 11:45 AM Sunday:

Boy, whatta lotta comments.

Here’s my thing: I’m talking mostly about people who fancy themselves poets and who also publish books of poetry in addition to their recorded musical work.

I dislike the Doors because I dislike the Doors. I shouldn’t have mixed my indifference toward the Doors’ music into my deep and abiding dislike of Morrison in particular.

I stand by the rest of my opinions. Again, it’s NOT because I like or dislike the work of any of those people mentioned by y’all.
