Balancing Basketball in Oaxaca

by Randy Roman

Sunlight slants through a louvered wooden shutter, casting sharp, rhythmic shadows across the rough, lime-washed plaster wall of a narrow Oaxacan alley. A child in a faded red t-shirt stands on a low stone curb, balancing a scuffed, leather basketball with one knee, his toes gripping the uneven cobblestones. Beside him, a painted wooden crate holds a cluster of bright orange citrus peels, their oily zest glistening under the harsh midday sun. The heat distorts the air slightly above the dark adobe facade, where a single iron hook hangs empty, holding only the weight of the shadow.
