Notes on Vision pg. 12

 

We all live in the city.

 

The city forms-often physically, but inevitable

psychically-a circle. A Game.  A ring of death

with sex at its center. Drive toward outskirts

of  city suburbs.  At the edge discover zones of

sophisticated vice and boredom, child prosti-

tution. But in the grimy ring immediately surround-

ing the daylight business district exists the only

real crowd life of our mound, the only street

like, night life.  Diseased specimens in dollar

hotels, low boarding houses, bars, pawn shops,

burlesques, and brothels, in dying arcades which

never die, in streets and streets of all-night

cinemas.
