material issue

a blank canvas
with everything to prove:

this aerie perch was the
silent silver medalist to
a panorama of city,
water and sky.

(and blessed Barney’s)

against a wash of elements,
the condo’s interior was
fashioned into a textural
preserve with stone clad floors,
chunky, split-face rock
and a subtle, glam sheen—

signaling a truce
between nature and nurture.
