David Hebert, Assistant City Manager, Homestead, FL

You are the closest I’ve known to a magnetic counterpart. To me your field is foreign, and frequently, depending on my direction, one that might forcefully repel me. Yet when I’m turned in a complementary direction, it’s as though the polar fields join. It’s an impossible revelation, a revolution. You guide me to reinvention. I read that the British army band played at their surrender at Yorktown a song titled “The World Turned Upside-Down.” Shortly thereafter, the British conquered, for better or worse, the known world.
