Copy of tweet here: Worldly, I arrived Stateside 36 yrs. ago, to a distinct impression that represented reality was superseding direct experience as a/the paramount, defining influence shaping the way peeps related.

Then again, if inhabiting the Real comes fully within reach (only) in assent to the truth of the neighborly, there's nothing finer to claim each one of us than awakening to a fully personalized, home-field advantage. Home is where we live, after all.
