Blue Knuckles Stapling Posters Fort-de-France Steps

by Maurice Wiley

Raindrops bead on the rough paper surface of election posters tacked to the limestone steps of Fort-de-France city hall. Sidelight from the pre-dawn sky skims across the scene, highlighting the swollen, blue-tinged knuckles of a volunteer pressing a staple into the paper. The stone steps show wet patches from the late summer drizzle, against the dry, matte finish of the campaign materials. A red and white poster edge peels slightly against the gray concrete. The volunteer's sleeve, rolled up to reveal the stained forearm, rests on the damp ledge. A fresh metal staple glints in the low morning light, securing the paper firmly to the historic masonry.
