Sugar Cane in Durban in in Durban, South Africa

Sugar Cane in Durban

by Kaylee Sparks

Flat noon light bleaches the color from a busy Durban street corner, where a vendor’s stall is anchored by a bright blue plastic tub filled with loose, peeled sugar cane stalks. Beside the tub, a small, hand-painted wooden sign lists prices in Zulu and English, while a faded red umbrella provides the only shade for a stack of postcards leaning against a corrugated iron wall. A metal bucket sits on the dusty ground, reflecting the harsh sky, and a single stalk of bougainvillea spills over the stall’s edge, its magenta petals against the gray concrete. A customer’s hand reaches in, holding a crumpled note, showing the transaction in mid-air without posing or pretense.
