Course Packets Slide From Professor's Cart

Bright noon light flattens the shadows across a concrete walkway in Rybnik. A metal cart loaded with papers tilts slightly, sending a cascade of stapled course packets tumbling onto the dry pavement. The documents scatter in a chaotic fan, their white and blue covers catching the harsh glare. An over-the-shoulder view shows the back of a dark coat and the cart's wire mesh side. The papers pile up in a disordered heap, edges curling under the weight. One packet lies flat near the cart's wheel, its red staple binding stark against the gray stone. The scene holds a quiet, institutional stillness despite the scattered mess.
