Guess who.

 

 

 

Hint:

 

He's a famous band member who died a long time ago.

 

Try to match the scene with a line from a song/poem.

 

 

 

I'll be impressed if anyone gets this.

 

 

 

[hide= LP got it.]

 

Holy Cabbage, that was fast. Yes, it was Jim Morrison.

 

Except the line is in some other poems/songs of his to, he's even explains that meaning behind the lines to.

 

 

 

I guess I can post this version to.

Dawn's Highway

 

Indians scattered on dawn's highway bleeding

 

Ghosts crowd the young child's fragile eggshell mind.

 

 

 

Me and my -ah- mother and father - and a

 

grandmother and a grandfather - were driving through

 

the desert, at dawn, and a truck load of Indian

 

workers had either hit another car, or just - I don't

 

know what happened - but there were Indians scattered

 

all over the highway, bleeding to death.

 

So the car pulls up and stops. That was the first time

 

I tasted fear. I musta' been about four - like a child is

 

like a flower, his head is just floating in the

 

breeze, man.

 

The reaction I get now thinking about it, looking

 

back - is that the souls of the ghosts of those dead

 

Indians...maybe one or two of 'em...were just

 

running around freaking out, and just leaped into my

 

soul. And they're still in there.

Nope.

 

 

 

Thanks, really I just created the picture from googling pictures and editing them into a scene.

 

Fun fact: 2 of those people are sleeping bums, one's an Iraqi, and the car is from Iraq to.

Jim Morrison

 

The Doors..

 

 

 

song.

 

Peace Frog

 

 

 

Theres blood in the streets, its up to my ankles

 

She came

 

Theres blood on the streets, its up to my knee

 

She came

 

Blood on the streets in the town of Chicago

 

She came

 

Blood on the rise, its following me

 

Think about the break of day

 

She came and then she drove away

 

Sunlight in her hair

 

She came

 

Blood in the streets runs a river of sadness

 

She came

 

Blood in the streets its up to my thigh

 

She came

 

Yeah the river runs down the legs of the city

 

She came

 

The women are crying red rivers of weeping

 

She came into town and then she drove away

 

Sunlight in her hair

 

Indians scattered on dawns highway bleeding

 

Ghosts crowd the young child's fragile eggshell mind

 

Blood in the streets in the town of new haven

 

Blood stains the roofs and the palm trees of Venice

 

Blood in my love in the terrible summer

 

Bloody red sun of fantastic l.a.

 

Blood streams her brain as they chop off her fingers

 

Blood will be born in the birth of a nation

 

Blood is the rose of mysterious union

 

Theres blood in the streets, its up to my ankles

 

Blood in the streets, its up to my knee

 

Blood in the streets in the town of Chicago

 

Blood on the rise, its following me

The poem/story you posted is just that, its not a song

 

I think Its from the book "Wilderness" by Jim, himself.

 

(collection of his poetry), though I haven't had time to read.

 

either that, its its from an interview I remember reading/watching.

 

 

 

Wheres my cookie!

Cookies take a long time to bake with a 40 watt bulb.

 

 

 

 

 

What I posted is also a track from "An American Prayer", a cd of him reading his poetry, with music from his band.

I wasn't really gone, I was on a 3 week vacation though.

 

 

 

The "photo" is compiled together of other photos.

 

 

 

I started with a picture of a desert highway, adjusted the colors to look like it's dawn.

 

 

 

Then I found a picture of a flipped car, removed the scenery and put it on there, adjusted the perspective, yada yada.

 

 

 

2 of the people laying down are actually sleeping bums, one's a war victem.

 

 

 

The only real blood is the blood on the car, everything else is made via photoshop. (and some of the blood on the person in the far right.)
