Particularly relevant is the opening line of the poem


I’ll tell you this...
No eternal reward will forgive us now
For wasting the dawn


/And next Tuesday is our dawn. God save us from wandering, wandering, in hopeless Night.

We have assembled inside,
This ancient and insane theater
To propagate our lust for life,
And flee the swarming wisdom of the streets.

The barns have stormed
The windows kept,
And only one of all the rest
To dance and save us
From the divine mockery of words.

/Morrison: An American Prayer
