Please join us for a reading by Sausalito waterfront poet Keith Emmons, author of the new poetry collection Moondrifter Reverie. A cum laude graduate of Harvard College, Keith lived for ten years in the Waldo Point houseboat community in the hippie days of the 1970s. Through poetry, haiku and free verse, Moondrifter Reverie describes a freewheeling group of dissenters from the social mainstream, determined to live by their own collective philosophy of peace and personal freedom. Through mirth and tears, drumming, howling at the moon, and raising their children in “the natural way,” the small community thrived until it ultimately succumbed to the antithetical values and raw hegemony of real estate developers.
