Lorca, The Dawn (NYC) The dawn of New York has four muddy columns and a hurricane of black pigeons splashing in putrid puddles. The dawn of New York moans through tall fire escapes looking among the edges for shards of anguish. Dawn comes and no one can swallow it because here there is no redemption and no hope. Sometimes swarming hoards of coins are enough to devour abandoned children. The first that wake know in their bones that today there will be no paradise or love found they know today they will be dragged down in the mire of numbers and laws in artless games and the fruitless sweat of their brows. Creeping crepuscular light captured by chains and noise in a swamp of irreverent rootless science, and in the boroughs the people wander half conscious like survivors of a catastrophe.
