Hell Is For Hippies

Muggles Amphora returns to San Francisco to find the Uptopian dream, set up a communal household, and ply his talents as a streetbusker and cofeehouse poet. If you grew up in the 1960’s, 70’s, or 80’s, you might appreciate this take the diversity between Utopian vision and Reality as the San Francisco measure of all things. More

San Francisco has long been considered a haven for Utopian idealism and free-thinking individualism. Muggles Amphora, street busker and coffeehouse poet, returns to his native city to find more challenges living ‘the high life” than he may have bargained for. The Haight has changed, thanks to an influx of ‘Goddesses in jackboots’ and ‘gay clones’, and the City itself is changing. From promiscuity within a communal household to a stable one-woman relationship, he goes from one extreme to another, meanwhile, commiserating with his friends in the differences between the City as considered by “the media” and the gritty realities of its urbane existence.
