The Devils

Loud bells peel over winter Lyon. A silver crucifix swings above a pulpit slick with candle wax. A priest’s shadow begins twitching before the accusations do. Church and city rot from the inside. One nun’s fevered lips stain silk veils with spit and blasphemy. Power tastes like dirty incense and warm wine. Russell’s baroque nightmares still burn.
