Matatu Stage in Nairobi

by Asher Holloway

Cool morning light spills over the corrugated zinc roof of a matatu stage in Eastlands, illuminating a tangle of blue and white striped fabric edges draped over a rusted drying rack. Below, the darkened tile grout of a nearby vendor’s stall catches the damp chill, hinting at early morning cleaning. A lone spool of thread rests on a plastic crate, abandoned near a half-packed crate of matooke. The scene stretches wide, showing the skeletal frames of matatus idling in the mist, their windows fogged. In the distance, a figure adjusts a guitar case, the instrument’s curves against the rigid geometry of the bus stop.
