Courtyard Alley in Beijing

by Tyler Salas

The pale, crisp light of early morning Beijing spills across a weathered courtyard alley, illuminating a stack of red lacquered wood crates near a doorway. Peeling turquoise paint flakes from the adjacent brick wall, revealing layers of gray mortar beneath. A steaming thermos sits precariously on a low concrete ledge beside a pair of rusted metal tongs, evidence of a recent breakfast or tea preparation. In the background, the geometric silhouette of a traditional tiled roof contrasts with the modern skyline’s hazy outline. One zinnia, bright and defiant, grows from a crack in the pavement, its petals catching the first direct sun.
