“A barred, broken window is testament to the level of violence after inmates took over Attica Prison charging inhumane conditions; riot police were sent in 4 days later resulting in 10 guards and workers being killed along with 29 inmates.”
New York, 1971

And with my cheek leant upon the window pane I like to fancy that I am pressing as closely as can be upon the massy wall of time, which is forever lifting and pulling and letting fresh spaces of life in upon us. May it be mine to taste the moment before it has spread itself over the rest of the world! Let me taste the newest and the freshest.
