Do you see that brown streak across the horizon?

It's not a storm or smoke.

IT'S CORN, dried and ready for harvest.

That's the end of my neighborhood, right there! Not marked by fences or signs. Just rows of stalks that have seen the whole summer pass.

I walked to the corner where the sidewalk ends and the fields begin.

It always felt like a soft boundary. The houses are behind me, and open land ahead.

Last year, this was planted with tomatoes.

You could smell them from the street, especially when the sun hit just right.

The fields are full of corn now, all browned out and tall,

making that soft shhh sound like they've got something to say.

I took a panoramic photo the corner, trying to catch it all.

But the field stretched too far... left and right, no end in sight.

It's funny how something so ordinary can feel so vast.

Just corn. Just the end of the block. But standing here, it feels like the beginning of something, too!
