Milky Way Over Lagos Customs House Ruin in beneath a broken stone arch near Lagos

Milky Way Over Lagos Customs House Ruin

by Emmanuel Frazier

Honeyed evening light spills across the weathered stone arch of a forsaken customs house, illuminating the broken pilings that jut from the receding tide flats below. Steady rain falls in visible, glistening streaks, turning the dry season ground into a slick, dark mirror. The impossible Milky Way arches boldly across the blue sky, its starry band glowing with the same warmth as the firelight reflecting off the wet masonry. Ancient stonework shows deep cracks and erosion, while the water reflects the celestial band in distorted, shimmering ripples. One beam of light hits a crumbling pillar, highlighting the texture of moss and salt against the surreal night sky visible in day.
