Villa Balcony

Villa Balcony

This iron-railed balcony juts from the second story of De Flores’s villa, its surface cold and unyielding beneath the silver-haired man’s feet. The air carries the metallic tang of recent rain and the sharp note of the record player’s needle dragging through static-laden grooves. Overhead, the Ride of the Valkyries swells from speakers, its crescendos warping the balmy night air as figures move in silhouette against the villa’s floodlit facade. Below, the ornate gardens stretch toward invisible gates, their manicured hedges clashing with the brutality of the rhetoric inside. The balcony’s cramped space amplifies the weight of De Flores’s words, the steel railing biting into palms as his followers cling to the precipice between crusade and catastrophe.
