Here.
Here is a common term, a workhorse word, a place to set the coffee.
Yet Here need not be so narrow.
Here can be defined by a finger pointing at a spot on the ground, or by a hand sweeping across the night sky.
It deals with memory and matter, time and action. Here delineates places, the people who inhabit them, and the processes that shape them. It is as much myth as it is material.
At any moment, Here may be a mosaic of contradictions: now and then, universal and particular, endemic and invasive, living and inert. It can signify a moment distilled, or a sequence across time.
