Seen UA, Untitled, 1985. Never Above 14th Street.
This place is the pulse.
Howling dogs never sleep
In this city — downtown — where thoughts brawl on the bar
…where ’96 remembers the future and ’83 forgets the past.
Hold the rhythm of this alleyway and a buzzing neon avenue.
This place where spray paint shouts from the puddle of splattered oil, while acrylic yellow cabs pour dreams of color on broken glass.
This place has no end in sight.
For the lost
For the stars
For the runaways, for the alchemists, the zeroes and the street-corner heroes
If this isn’t the place, are you even a freak?
