Claude McKay

The Dawn! The Dawn! The crimson-tinted, comes Out of the low still skies, over the hills, Manhattan's roofs and spires and cheerless domes! The Dawn! My spirit to its spirit thrills. Almost the mighty city is asleep, No pushing crowd, no tramping, tramping feet. But here and there a few cars groaning creep Along, above, and underneath the street, Bearing their strangely-ghostly burdens by, The women and the men of garish nights, Their eyes wine-weakened and their clothes awry, Grotesques beneath the strong electric lights. The shadows wane. The Dawn comes to New York. And I go darkly-rebel to my work.

The meaning of this poem is someone talking about the night time in New York. It shows a lot of imagery by discussing how the city of Manhattan lights up at night. POV – 1 st person Tone – clam/relaxed

 “ The Dawn! The Dawn!” – Repetition  “My spirit to its spirit thrills” – Hyperbole  “the mighty city is asleep” – personification  “No pushing crowd, no tramping, tramping feet” – imagery  “garish nights” – imagery  “Their eyes wine-weakened” – hyperbole  “the strong electric lights”
