Michael Susko, M.S. in Counseling Psychology, worked for several years in a psychiatric halfway house and as an homeless outreach worker in Baltimore City. He collected these writings from his encounters with persons on the street, and from persons who had been in psychiatric hospitals. At the time this journal was published locally, but the editor now extends these works of art to a broader audience.
