"I see myself as a huge fiery comet, a shooting
star. Everyone stops, points up and gasps "Oh look at that!" Then- whoosh, and I'm gone...and they'll never see anything like
it ever again...and they won't be able to forget me- ever." -- Jim
Morrison
The Celebration of the Lizard
ns"I AM THE LIZARD KING, I CAN DO ANYTHING!"
Where was going Jim Morrison?
Lions in the street and roaming Dogs
in heat, rabid, foaming A beast caged in the heart of
a city The body of his mother Rotting in the summer ground. He fled the town.
He went down South and crossed the border Left the chaos and disorder Back there over his shoulder. One morning he awoke in a
green hotel With a strange creature groaning beside
him. Sweat oozed from its shiny skin. Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to
begin. Wake up! You can't remember where it was. Had this dream stopped? The
snake was pale gold Glazed & shrunken. We were afraid to touch it. The
sheets were hot dead prisons. Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom, Look! I
can't live thru each slow century of her moving. I let my cheek slide down The cool smooth tile Feel the good cold stinging blood The
smooth hissing snakes of rain... Once I had a little game I liked to crawl back
into my brain I think you know the game I mean I mean the game called 'go
insane' Now you should try this little game Just close your eyes forget your
name Forget the world, forget the people And we'll erect a different steeple.
This little game is fun to do. Just close your eyes, no way to lose. And I'm
right thre, I'm going too. Release control, we're breaking through. Way back
deep into the brain Back where there's never any pain.
And the rain falls gently on the town. And in the labyrinth of streams Beneath, the quiet unearthly presence of Nervous hill
dwellers in the gentle hill around, Reptiles abounding Fossils, caves, cool air
heights. Each house repeats a mold Windows rolled Beast car locked in against
morning. All now sleeping Rugs silent, mirrors vacant, Dust
blind under the beds of lawful couples Wound in sheets. And daughters,
smug With semen eyes in their nipples Wait There's
been a slaughter here. (Don't stop to speak or look around Your
gloves & fan are on the ground We're getting out of town We're going on the
run And you're the one I want to come) Not to touch the earth Not to see the
sun Nothing left to do, but Run, run, run Let's run House upon the hill Moon is
lying still Shadows of the trees Witnessing the wild breeze C'mon baby run with
me Let's run Run with me Run with me Run with me Let's run The mansion is warm,
at the top of the hill Rich are the rooms and the comforts there Red are the
arms of luxuriant chairs And you won't know a thing till you get inside Dead
president's corpse in the driver's car The engine runs on glue and tar C'mon
along, we're not going very far To the East to meet the Czar. Some outlaws
lived by the side of a lake The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road Wake up, girl! We're almost home
Sun, sun, sun Burn, burn, burn Soon, soon, soon Moon, moon, moon, I will get
you Soon! Soon! Soon! Let the carnival bells ring Let the serpent sing Let
everything We came down The rivers & highways We came down from Forests &
falls We came down from Carson & Springfield We came down from Phoenix
enthralled & I can tell you The names of the Kindom I can tell you The
things that you know Listening for a fistful of silence Climbing valleys into
the shade 'I am the Lizard King I can do anything I can make the earth stop in
its tracks I made the blue cars go away For seven years I dwelt In the loose
palace of exile, Playing strange games With the girls of the island. Now I have
come again To the land of the fair, & the strong,
& the wise. Brothers & sisters of the pale forest O children of Night
Who among you will run with the hunt? Now Night arrives with her purple legion.
Retire now to your tents & to your dreams. Tomorrow we enter the town of my
birth. I want to be ready - said the best Don Juan’s student.

Yes I am. You want to make something of
it?"

The Lizard King is a
mythologic figure conceived of by Jim Morrison,placing himself as the central figure of
the metaphor.
James Douglas Morrison and The
Doors too were deeply interested by the metaphysical as interpreted in both
modern and ancient times throudh psychedelia. And Jim personally was both a
Jungian, and deeply interested in Native
American mysticism. Often, his words and actions were meant to provoke a
sub-conscious reaction, believing the sub-conscious reacts to certain images
and patterns. Onstage at his rock-and-roll concerts, he would imitate a Shaman, screaching, making animal sounds,
taking mind-expanding drugs, and keeling over and either getting up laughing or
playing dead before he awakes slowly, smiling wryly. Most Shamans became
fascinated with one deity, often in Native American Shamanism a real animal, like the bear,
crow or magpie. Jim Morrison was fascinated by the lizard. Morrison believed
that the lizard embodied and symbolized a powerful force the sub-conscious
mind, epitomizing all fear and longing in the psyche. His conception of the Lizard
King has been interpreted by some as a recognition
of a profound and transcendent spiritual reality, such as the achievement of nirvana
by Buddha. But buddha-consciousness exists,
the Lizard King doesn't exist. The Lizard King is meant
allegorically. The symbol represents something dormant in all human beings and
that which can be awoken by inward experience. The Lizard King
isn't out there, it's within. It's beyond the metaphors of the world which we
percieve through the archetypes of the sub-conscious mind. The Lizard
King agitates like a Trickster Hero, but it's the Trickster Hero who is always
the most cunning, and wise.
In late 2002, Manzarek and Krieger revived the
Doors, recruiting singer Ian Astbury of The Cult, as well as drummer Ty Dennis and
bassist Angelo Barbera, both of the Robby Krieger Band, calling themselves Doors of the
21st Century, and are still touring today. The Doors are remembered for
shamanistic live performances. Some people of the "establishment" thought that they were just
more American rock music rebels. Jim Morrison said: "I like any reaction I
can get with my music. Just anything to get people to think.
I mean if you can get a whole room full of drunk, stoned people to actually
wake up and think, you're doing something."

I’m glad to see you.
Specifically, Shaman
(saman) is a term in Evenk, Manchu and other Manchu-Tungus languages for
an intellectual and spiritual figure; who usually possess power and influence
on other peoples in the tribe and performs several functions, one of which is analogous to the function of a healer in
other cultures. The role of the shaman is also to provide medical care, and to provide for other
community needs during crisis times, via "supernatural" means (means that people from a
European cultural tradition might regard as magic, a concept which has its roots in
the shamanism of the Middle-east, see magi). The role of the shaman is to
communicate with entities on the "spiritual plane", and to secure their aid to
provide for the needs of their communities. Although the word ends with
"-man," it is a gender neutral term: a man or woman may be a shaman,
depending upon cultural tradition. The plural is shamans.
For a categorisation of the
Siberian shamans based on drum motif semantics, see ceremonial drums. This category
of shamans have not the same function in their society today, besides
some very few exceptions. This change occurred especially after the Russian revolution (1917).
Generically, Shaman refers
to analogous functions in other cultures, such as the North American
hunter-fishermen culture's "medicine man" or the African agricultural's
"Witch doctor". Shamans have existed in most
parts of the world, and the ancient shamans of
Joseph Campbell described the essential
difference between priest and shaman:
"The
priest is the socially initiated, ceremonially inducted member of a recognized
religious organization, where he holds a certain rank and functions as the
tenant of an office that was held by others before him, while the shaman is one
who, as a consequence of a personal psychological crisis, has gained a certain
power of his own." (1969, p. 231)
The "Master of the
Animals" represented in Neolithic cave paintings has Bronze Age counterparts in the natures of Orion in the Aegean and Enkidu in the Sumerian/Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh.
Some shamans encourage the belief
that they possess supernatural qualities that transcend human nature. To wit,
shamans are usually credited with the ability to speak to spirits and perform feats of magic such as astral projection and healing. Shamans are usually found in
tribal cultures with nature religions and beliefs in ancestor spirits, though
some persons in modern Western cultures also consider themselves to be
shamans. The shaman's office is frequently held to be hereditary and his
ancestral spirits may act as his chief conduits for spiritual aid. However, the
most powerful shamans are those who have a natural aptitude for the calling.
These individuals easily enter into the separate reality of the spirits, and do so without
the need of drugs or other artificial support. Tradition also holds that a
shaman is chosen by the spirits, not by the people. A shaman may be initiated
via a serious illness, by being struck by lightning, or by a near-death experience, and there usually is a set of
cultural imagery expected to be experienced during shamanic initiation
regardless of method. According to Mircea Eliade, such imagery often includes
being transported to the spirit world and interacting with beings inhabiting
it, meeting a spiritual guide, being devoured by some being and emerging
transformed, and/or being "dismantled" and "reassembled" again,
often with implanted amulets such as magical crystals. The imagery generally
speaks of transformation and granting powers, or of traveling the other world
and making useful contacts with spirits there.
One of a shaman's main functions
is to protect individuals from hostile supernatural influences. He or she deals with a
range of spirits, performs sacrifices and procures oracles. The shaman may act as psychopomp, conducting the spirits of
individuals who have just died to the proper refuge for dead spirits.
Shamanistic traditions often include induction of trance through natural drugs (often neurotoxins known to be hallucinogens), chanting, fasting, dancing and music. The drum (tungur in Altaic) is an important instrument in
shamanic ceremonies, as it is commonly used to induce autohypnotic phenomena.
Researchers also suspect that in some cultures schizophrenia or similar conditions may
predispose an individual to the role of shaman. That view is a negative
interpretation of the same insight that is enunciated by many shamanic cultures
-- that the best shamans spontaneously perform their functions.

Now something about signs in our mind:
Archetype is defined as the first original
model of which all other similar persons, objects, or concepts are merely
derivative, copied, patterned, or emulated. The term is often used in literature, architecture, and
the arts to refer to something that goes back to the fundamental origins of
style, method, gold standard, or physical construct. Shakespeare, for example, is epitomized for popularizing many archetypal
characters, not because he was the first that we know of to write them, but
because he defined those roles amongst the backdrop of a complex, social
literary landscape. Thus, the characters stand out as original by contrast,
even though many of his characters were based on previously-garnered archetypes
(Shakespeare often borrowed from fables, myths and magic to construct and
embellish his plays).
The archetype is also a concept of psychologist Carl Gustav Jung. In this context, archetypes are innate prototypes for ideas, which may
subsequently become involved in the interpretation of observed phenomena. A
group of memories and interpretations closely associated with an archetype is
called a complex, and may be named for its central archetype (e.g. "mother
complex"). Jung often seemed to view the archetypes as sort of
psychological organs, directly analogous to our physical, bodily organs: both
being morphological givens for the species; both arising at least partially
through evolutionary
processes. There are four famous forms of archetypes numbered by Jung:
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/S/Self-(psychology).htm
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/S/Self-awareness.htm
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/S/Self-concept.htm
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/S/Self-Control.htm
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/S/Self-harm.htm
The Self is a key construct
in several schools of Psychology. Usages differ between theorists and
fields of study, but in general the self refers to the conscious, reflective
personality of an individual. The study of the self involves significant
methodological problems, especially concerning consciousness. Some of these are taken up in philosophy of mind and metaphysics.
Perhaps the best-known account of
the self is Freud's theory of the tri-partite function of the self, involving ego, id and superego processes. Many theorists,
however, would bring under the heading of the self only what Freud regarded as
ego processes.
Self-awareness is the ability to perceive one's
own existence, including one's own traits, feelings and behaviours. In an
epistemological sense, self-awareness is a personal understanding of the very
core of one's own identity. It is the basis for many other human traits, such
as accountability and consciousness, and as such is often the subject
of debate among philosophers. Self-awareness can be perceived as a
trait that people possess to varying degrees beyond the most basic sentience
that defines human awareness. This trait is one that is normally taken for
granted, resulting in a general ignorance of one's self that manifests as odd
contradictory behavior. This ignorance of one's own self is viewed in
existentialism and Zen buddhism as the source of much human suffering, as noted
by the famous saying from Zen buddhism "we are each the source of our own
suffering."
The self-concept (self-identity) is the mental
notion an animal has about its physical, psychological, and social attributes; as well as its attitudes, beliefs and ideas, The
self-concept consists of the self-image and the self-esteem.
A milestone in human reflection about the non-physical inner self came
in 1644, when
René Descartes wrote Principles of Philosophy. Descartes proposed that
doubt was a principal tool of disciplined inquiry, yet he could not doubt that
he doubted. He reasoned that if he doubted, he was thinking, and therefore he
must exist. Thus existence depended upon perception.
A second milestone in the development of self-concept theory was the
writing of Sigmund Freud (1900) who gave us new understanding of the importance of internal
mental processes. While Freud and many of his followers hesitated to make
self-concept a primary psychological unit in their theories, Freud's daughter
Anna (1946) gave central importance to ego development and self-interpretation.
Self-concept theory has always had a strong influence on the emerging
profession of counseling. Prescott Lecky (1945) contributed the notion that
self-consistency is a primary motivating force in human behavior. Raimy (1948) introduced measures of self-concept in counseling
interviews and argued that psychotherapy is basically a process of altering the
ways that individuals see themselves.
By far the most influential and eloquent voice in self-concept theory
was that of Carl Rogers
(1947) who introduced an entire system of helping built around the importance
of the self. In
While most self-concept theorists continued to write and conduct
research during the 1970s and 1980s, general interest in self-concept declined.
In a recent article explaining the likely causes for the decline of
"humanistic" education, Patterson (1987) presents reasons for the
decline of interest in self-concept as well. He offers four likely causes:
1. A cornucopia of contrived games, gimmicks, and techniques that were
introduced and controlled by unprepared professionals.
2. A national mood of "back to basics" in education prevailed
where concern for the emotional needs of students was viewed as inimical to
academic excellence.
3. Poor judgment by counselors and teachers in selecting suitable
materials for values clarification programs resulted in public opposition to
any attempt to introduce values in school.
4. Strong opposition by those who objected to any consideration of
personal development of students because they believed it to be secular humanism and, therefore, an effort to undermine religion.
Fortunately, there is a new awareness on the part of both the public and
professionals that self-concept cannot be ignored if we are to successfully
address such nagging problems as drug and alcohol abuse, drop-out rates,
dysfunctional families, and other concerns. In addition to this growing
awareness, new ways are being developed to strengthen self-concepts. For
example, research by cognitive theorists (McAdam, 1986; Ryan,
Short & Weed, 1986) are demonstrating that negative self-talk leads
to irrational thinking regarding oneself and the world.
BASIC ASSUMPTION
Many of the successes and failures that
people experience in many areas of life are closely related to the ways that
they have learned to view themselves and their relationships with others. It is also becoming clear that self-concept has at least three major
qualities of interest to counselors: (1) it is learned, (2) it is organized,
and (3) it is dynamic. Each of these qualities, with corollaries, follow.
Self-concept is learned. As far as we know, no one is born with a
self-concept. It gradually emerges in the early months of life and is shaped
and reshaped through repeated perceived experiences, particularly with
significant others. The fact that self-concept is learned has some important
implications:
-- Because self-concept does not appear to be instinctive, but is a
social product developed through experience, it possesses relatively boundless
potential for development and actualization.
-- Because of previous experiences and present perceptions, individuals
may perceive themselves in ways different from the ways others see them.
-- Individuals perceive different aspects of themselves at different times
with varying degrees of clarity. Therefore, inner focusing is a valuable tool
for counseling.
-- Any experience which is inconsistent with one's self-concept may be
perceived as a threat, and the more of these experiences there are, the more
rigidly self-concept is organized to maintain and protect itself. When a person
is unable to get rid of perceived inconsistencies, emotional
problems arise.
-- Faulty thinking patterns, such as dichotomous reasoning (dividing
everything in terms of opposites or extremes) or overgeneralizing (making
sweeping conclusions based on little information) create negative
interpretations of oneself.
Self-concept is organized. Most researchers agree that self-concept has
a generally stable quality that is characterized by orderliness and harmony.
Each person maintains countless perceptions regarding one's personal existence,
and each perception is orchestrated with all the others. It is this generally
stable and organized quality of self-concept that gives consistency to the
personality. This organized quality of self-concept has corollaries.
-- Self-concept requires consistency, stability, and tends to resist
change. If self-concept changed readily, the individual would lack a consistent
and dependable personality.
-- The more central a particular belief is to one's self-concept, the
more resistant one is to changing that belief.
-- At the heart of self-concept is the self-as-doer, the "I,"
which is distinct from the self-as-object, the various "me's." This
allows the person to reflect on past events, analyze present perceptions, and
shape future experiences.
-- Basic perceptions of oneself are quite
stable, so change takes time.
-- Perceived success and failure impact on self-concept. Failure in a
highly regarded area lowers evaluations in all other areas as well. Success in
a prized area raises evaluations in other seemingly unrelated areas.
Self-Concept is dynamic. To understand the active nature of
self-concept, it helps to imagine it as a gyrocompass: a
continuously active system that dependably points to the "true north"
of a person's perceived existence. This guidance system not only shapes the
ways a person views oneself, others, and the world, but it also serves to
direct action and enables each person to take a consistent "stance"
in life. Rather than viewing self-concept as the cause of behavior, it is
better understood as the gyrocompass of human personality,
providing consistency in personality and direction for behavior. The dynamic
quality of self-concept also carries corollaries.
-- The world and the things in it are not just perceived; they are
perceived in relation to one's self-concept.
-- Self-concept development is a continuous process. In the healthy
personality there is constant assimilation of new ideas and expulsion of old
ideas throughout life.
-- Individuals strive to behave in ways that are in keeping with their
self-concepts, no matter how helpful or hurtful to oneself
or others.
-- Self-concept usually takes precedence over the physical body.
Individuals will often sacrifice physical comfort and safety for emotional
satisfaction.
-- Self-concept continuously guards itself against loss of self-esteem,
for it is this loss that produces feelings of anxiety.
-- If self-concept must constantly defend itself from assault, growth
opportunities are limited.
Self-harm (SH) is deliberate injury
to one's own body. This injury may be aimed at relieving otherwise unbearable emotions, sensations of unreality and
numbness, or for other reasons. Self-harm is generally a social taboo. It is sometimes associated with mental illnesses such as Borderline Personality Disorder, with a history of trauma and
abuse; and with mental traits such as perfectionism.
Self-harm is also known as self-injury
(SI), self-inflicted violence (SIV), self-injurious
behaviour (SIB), and self-mutilation1, although this last term has
connotations that some people find perturbing. When discussing self-harm with
someone who engages in it, it is suggested to use the same terms and words that
that person uses rather than insisting on labeling it "self-harm".
A common form of self-injury is
shallow cuts to the skin of the arms or legs, or less frequently to other parts
of the body, including the breasts and sexual organs. Since this is the most
well-known, it is casually referred to as "cutting", though it may also
involve punching, slapping, or burning oneself as well. People who engage in
self-harm are not usually attempting suicide, but are trying to relieve an
unbearable emotional pressure they are feeling. However, self-injury is a
strong predictor for future suicide or suicide attempts. A self-injurer is
significantly more likely than people of other diagnoses to attempt or complete
suicide in the year after an incident of self-injury. Self harm is seen by some
as attention seeking behavior, though many self-injurers are ashamed and
embarrassed, going to some lengths to conceal their behavior from others.
Strictly, self-harm is a general
term for self-damaging activities (which could include alcohol abuse, bulimia
etc.); self-injury refers to the more specific practice of cutting, bruising,
self poisoning, over-dosing (without suicidal intent) burning or otherwise
directly injuring the body. In the past this term has also been used to refer
to masturbation, although it is now generally accepted
that this practice is not harmful.
Self efficacy is an individual's estimate or
personal judgment of his or her own ability to
succeed in reaching a specific goal, e.g., quitting smoking or losing weight or a more
general goal, e.g., continuing to remain at a prescribed weight level.
Self-Esteem is
the second single by a California punk rock group
the Offspring. It was released in 1994 and appears on their third album Smash. The Offspring became popular on the same time "Come Out and Play" was
released
In the writings of psychologist Abraham Maslow, self-actualization is a
set of psychological characteristics. Maslow writes of
self-actualizing people that:
A CRITIQUE OF
THE CONCEPT OF SELFHOOD
'Selfhood' or complete autonomy is a uniquely western approach to
psychology and models of self are employed constantly in areas such as psychotherapy and self help.
Edward E. Sampson (1989)
argues that the preoccupation with independence is harmful in that it creates
racial, sexual and national divides and does not allow for observation of the
self-in-other and
other-in-self.
The very notion of selfhood is an attacked idea, necessary for the
mechanisms of advanced capitalism to function as they do. Nikolas Rose (1998)
proposes that psychology is now employed as a technology: one that allows
humans to buy into an invented and arguably false sense of self. It is said
freedom, Rose writes, that assists government and exploitation rather than the
antithesis of it. The quantifying and classifying process is referred to by Michel Foucault (1975, 1977) as
being the issue of ‘the calculable man’: when the masses are classified they
can be exploited as individuals and it is individuality that allows this to
occur.
Shadow (psychology)
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/S/Shadow-(psychology).htm
The shadow may appear in dreams and visions in various forms, often as a
feared or despised person or being, and may act either as an adversary or as a
friend. It typically has the same apparent gender as one's persona. It is possible that it might
tend to appear with dark skin to a person of any race, since it represents an
old ancestral aspect of the mind. The shadow's appearance and role depend
greatly on individual idiosyncrasies, because the shadow develops in the
individual's mind rather than simply being inherited in the collective unconscious.
Interactions with the shadow in dreams may shed light on one's state of
mind. A disagreement with the shadow may indicate that one is coping with
conflicting desires or intentions. Friendship with a despised shadow may mean
that one has an unacknowledged resemblance to whatever one hates about that
character. These examples refer to just two of many possible roles that the
shadow may adopt, and are not general guides to interpretation. Also, it can be
difficult to identify characters in dreams, so that a character who seems at first to be a shadow might represent some other
complex instead.
According to Jung, the shadow
sometimes takes over a person's actions, especially when the conscious mind is
shocked, confused, or paralyzed by indecision.
The shadow might be the basis of
the rank of Corax (raven) in the ancient religion of Mithraism.

Anima - Animus
http://www.worldhistory.com/wiki/A/Anima.htm
According to Carl Jung, the anima is the feminine side of a man's personal unconscious. It can be identified as all the
unconscious feminine psychological qualities that a man possesses.
Jung also believed that every woman has an analogous animus within her psyche, this being a set of unconscious masculine attributes and potentials.
The anima is one of the most
significant autonomous complexes of all. Its presence from figures
in dreams to how a man will think of women in the real world is profound. Jung
said that confronting one's shadow is an apprentice-piece while confronting
one's anima is the masterpiece. He also had a four-fold theory on the anima's
typical development ranging from its projection onto the mother in infancy
through projection on prospective sexual partners and finally onto a later
phase he termed Sophia, doubtlessly in a Gnostic reference. It is worth noting
that in practically every theory of Jung's, he would use a four fold structure
Anima is also a combination of the
four elements in many of the Fire Emblem series.
According to Carl Jung, the animus is the masculine side of a woman's personal unconscious. It can be identified as all the
unconscious masculine psychological qualities that a woman possesses.
Jung also believed that every man has an analogous anima within his psyche, this being a set of unconscious feminine attributes and potentials.
The symbols of the unconscious abound in Jungian psychology:
"Archetype" is sometimes broadly and misleadingly used as a
substitute for such other words as prototype, stereotype, and epitome. Examples:
As with other psychologies which have infiltrated mass thought,
archetypes are now incorporated into discourses on cultural analysis. Archetypes in this sense
include

me to be the road towards freedom - external freedom is a way to bring about
internal freedom." -- Jim Morrison
"I wouldn't mind dying in a plane crash. It'd be
a good way to go. I don't want to die in my sleep, or of old age, or OD...I
want to feel what it's like. I want to taste it, hear it, smell
it. Death is only going to happen to you once; I don't want to miss it."
-- Jim Morrison
“I am the Lizarg King. I can do anything"
I am the Shamen poet.
I am the writter of all contraversial sonnet.
I am a rider on the storm
of my death that I hide in my minds deepest dorm.
I loved them one time for my day.
I loved them two times each day sence I have gone away.
I am the hypnotist.
I am the LSD mysisist.
My erotic moods
lead me to drown my depressions in melting, brain, ooze.
I will never totally lose.
I shall forever remain
with a legendary name.
I am JIM MORRISON ...
drifting endlessly in the sun-
Forever,
"I am the Lizard King"
and now, in my eternity, "I can do any thing."

I do
not know if any here realize what a grand poet JIM MORRISON
was...
but if you should get the chance...
read...
read his words until your ears and eyes bleed...
his words were food for, any mind to ,up on, feed!!!
~affy~ 1998
A fate no greater than a heart to despair
to be consumed by desire alone
A desire sole
and one of falling cares
A King is great to his people
in a truth of embrace
but a kingdom of the heart shares none
but a silence in grace
Why was such a beautiful artist wasted?
He may be gone,
but we still have his poetry and music... Thank God.
