Best View In The World

Two trees, one field, one sky—split down the middle and pressed together like a memory you can almost hold. This is New Jersey. Late summer going golden, the kind of landscape that doesn't ask to be noticed. Down the center, the city forces its way in. Traffic on 9A, the shadow of One World Trade, the relentless vertical of New York compressed into a column of blue, red, and grey. And threaded through it—feet in a bed, a window, a view of the Pacific from a room in Maui. Three places. One life. The piece doesn't choose between them—it stacks them, lets them interrupt each other, lets them coexist the way they do in the mind of anyone who has ever left somewhere and never fully arrived somewhere else. The best view in the world is the one you're always compositing from everywhere you've ever been.
