City on the Make

                        
              The great trains howling from track to track all night. The taut and telegraphic murmur of ten thosand city wires, drawn most cruelly against a city sky. The rush of city waters beneath the city streets. The passionate passing of the city's last El.

Never come Morning
Nelson Algren
1942
