In 1977 I entered a period of my life where self doubt and depression were nearly everyday occurrences. Not liking these attitudes, I began self analysis using the Gestalt therapy teachings of Fritz Perls. From 1977 to 1980 I hung out at the Upstart Crow Bookstore ad Coffeehouse at the Pruneyard in Campbell, California. It was in this wonderfully social environment that I began sketching hundred of contour drawings of patrons and writing poetry and stream of consciousness meanderings. This book is a compilation of many of those works.
