Vendor Sharpening Knife Under Magenta Dawn Sky

by Stella Carroll

A vendor crouches in a narrow Salt Lake City flea market lane, hands gripping a steel blade against a wet whetstone. Pale silver dawn light illuminates the metal grit and water droplets on the vendor's worn work gloves. The surrounding stalls display rows of tools and vintage goods under the heavy, monsoon-season clouds that dominate the upper frame. Above the market lane, the sky has shifted to an impossible deep magenta, casting a surreal glow that contrasts with the gray concrete pavement. Water beads on the vendor's leather apron and the stone surface. The shadow of the knife falls sharply across the vendor's forearm, at the base of the impossible color in a tangible, tactile moment of daily labor.
