Dawn arrives

 Garcia Lorca says "Dawn arrives" just as he was setting up a new scene inside a theatre play. In fact we can imagine New York waking up from the night. Other imaginaries are scattered throughout the poem. Examples of them are the lines "Four columns of mire and a hurricane of black pigeons"(Stanza 1) and "Dawn in New York groans on enormous fire escapes". These are phrases that helps us set an image of New York in our head; the images of a set where the lives of millions of people are enacted every morning. Federico Garcia Lorca uses his poetic wisdom and his surrealistic roots to show us a New York that has been affected by the issues of its country in the times in which this poem was written (Late 20s).
