In the holy solipsism of the youngNow I can't walk thru a citystreet w/out eying eachsingle pedestrian. I feelthier vibe thru myskin, the hair on my neck--- it rises.
In Jim Morrison's work "Wilderness: The Lost Writings, Vol. 1," he expresses the intense and overwhelming experience of being alive in a bustling urban environment. The feeling of connection, or even the awareness of others around him, becomes a powerful sensory experience. Each person he encounters evokes a visceral reaction, highlighting the deep interconnection with the world and its inhabitants.
This excerpt captures the essence of youthful introspection and the heightened sensitivity to life's dynamics. Morrison illustrates how the presence of others can trigger a profound awareness, where the energy and emotions of the surrounding individuals are felt intimately. This introspective journey emphasizes both the beauty and complexity of human interactions in a crowded city.
