A Cape For Today

I will not make poems with reference to parts,
But I will make poems, songs, thoughts, with reference to ensemble,
And I will not sing with reference to a day, but with reference
to all days,
And I will not make a poem nor the least part of a poem but has
reference to the soul,
Becasue having look'd at the objects of the universe, I find there
is no one nor any particle of one but has reference to the soul.
Starting From Paumoanok
W. Whitman

So this home, formally a collection of discreet inwardly focused spaces reflective of the time it was first built, is built anew to provide a range of spaces, from small and introverted to large and extroverted, that are a reflection of its current family. We also weave together the previously distinct outside and inside with transition spaces. In making our ensemble we eschew the seamless as well as schizophrenic. We rather use our opportunity to blend the parts into something new and better. An ensemble that resonates on our soul.
